How to: Get a job in the music industry - The Big Music Project Very few industries are more exciting to work in than the music industry. We’re not saying that it is all glitz and glamour – it’s hard work, more so now than ever! We know that it isn’t always easy to get your foot in the door of the industry – but it is possible. First and foremost, it is important to be clear about the role you want within the industry and work towards the skills required to fulfil it. Like any other industry, the record industry wants to recruit and retain the very best talent from within the worlds of digital, marketing, A&R, communications, sales, and much more. There is no magic formula for getting that dream job, but you can help yourself along the way. 1. Don’t just say that you want to work in the music industry – identify the skills you have and the way in which you could apply those to a job in the business. 2. The industry offers a number of internships – paid and unpaid – each year to those who demonstrate passion and enthusiasm for music. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

AMERICAN THEATRE | Whitewash ‘In the Heights’? Chicago, You Can Do Better Samantha Pauly with the cast of "Evita" at the Marriott Theatre. (Photo by Liz Lauren) Last week, Chicago’s Porchlight Music Theatre released the cast list for its upcoming production of In the Heights, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Quiara Alegría Hudes’s musical set in the predominantly Latino neighborhood of Washington Heights in New York City. Almost immediately, a number of people noticed that while a majority of the cast featured Latinos, the show’s lead and narrator, Usnavi—an immigrant from the Dominican Republic played by Miranda in the original Off-Broadway and Broadway productions—will be played by a white actor, Jack DeCesare. The creative team is also predominantly non-Hispanic white. This news follows another Chicago casting controversy from earlier this year, when Marriott Theatre announced the cast for its production of Evita, a show set in Argentina, that featured only one Latino actor. These roles were written by Latin@s for Latin@ actors. Edited to add.
