THROWBACK // Episode #93: Anna-Lee Craig (2017)
This is the last throwback before we really dive in and start wrapping up The Hamilcast. Anna-Lee Craig is HamiltonBroadway’s A2 (assistant sound), and when she came on the podcast all the way back in 2017, she made all of our heads explode. It actually keeps happening because I STILL hear from listeners about this conversation. I mean, she invented the famous ALC Special! And, come to think of it, listeners write not just about this conversation, but the many conversations I’ve had with people behind the scenes at Hamilton, in all different arenas: hair, wardrobe, management, sound, you name it.  These episodes really, really highlighted that you can love theatre and love the arts and still be a MAJOR part of it without being on stage.  The main reason I wanted to repost this episode is because I really wanted to point out how important these episodes were SPECIFICALLY for women. Anna-Lee is among many, many badass women featured on the podcast, especially when it comes to behind the scenes work. I’m super proud that I was able to speak to so many of the people who make Hamilton what it is, in so many ways, and it’s really important to me that so many women were able to come on and tell their stories.  If you’re interested in all of that behind the scenes action (from everyone), there are manyyyyyyy episodes listed further down in the show notes. This is the full, untouched episode from 2017 and below is the original description. ALC's second episode is #94. /// Get ready to become OBSESSED with Anna-Lee Craig, one of Hamilton Broadway's team of groundbreaking sound experts. Anna-Lee's official title is A2/Assistant Sound, but I've also added Badass Lady because she is awesome. Having been with Hamilton since The Public, Anna-Lee knows how to make each and every performance sound its best. I mean, she came up with a special microphone design the crew calls the ALC Special. Does it get any cooler than that? Oh - one more thing - Anna-Lee invited me to watch the show from her sound console WHICH I WILL NEVER GET OVER, EVER! But having watch her mix a performance, I can tell you that what she does is nothing less than sorcery. Lezgo!
