The LoDown with Lois Robbins - Guest : Ivana Chubbuck

Welcome to the LoDown, a podcast hosted by Lois Robbins exploring the voices inside and outside the entertainment industry.

On this episode of the LoDown, Lois speaks with the indispensable Ivana Chubbuck.

If you’ve ever dabbled in acting, then you probably know her name. If not, you should know that she is hailed as the premiere acting coach of the twenty-first century.

Hailed by? Yes, hailed by none other than Halle Berry. 

Oh, but the list goes on. Ivana is beloved by a string of stars in the Hollywood pantheon - Charlize Theron, Sylvester Stalone, Gary Shandling, Sylvester Stalone, Judith Light, Brad Pitt, etc.

Today, Ivana and Lois dig into what makes great acting… Psst, part of it is being aware of other actors, being responsive to them, and actively listening. From there, they explore the importance of creating art and finding joy in acting or whatever your calling is.

Ivana shares some of her techniques as a coach and how she gets her students involved with examining their trauma and ultimately finding empowerment through art.

Aspiring to become an actor or not, it’s a must listen. After all, each and every one of us puts a mask on at some point of our lives. Best know how to use it, no?

Please enjoy!
