<p>Jennifer Williams interviews Sharrell D. Luckett, Ph.D., acclaimed theatre director, professor, actor, scholar, and author of the book <em>Black Acting Methods</em>: <em>Critical Approaches </em>– a groundbreaking anthology which is the first book to highlight diverse acting and directing methods rooted in Afrocentrism. She is the Director of the Weinberger Center for Drama & Playwriting and professor of Drama and Performance Studies at the University of Cincinnati. We discuss Afrocentric approaches to acting and acting pedagogy; why colorblind casting is problematic and better practices for inclusive casting; and a sneak peek at future editions of her book and the future work of the Black Acting Methods Studio.</p>
