Creative Risk
The Power of High School Theater Pt.1
In this personal, winding, and emotionally resonant episode of Creative Risk, the boys crack open a sacred, formative chapter: high school theater. But this isn’t just a nostalgia trip. It’s an excavation-of early validation, teenage fragility, creative discovery, social hierarchy, and the kinds of teachers who see something in you before you know how to see it yourself.
Told through laughter, real talk, and deeply moving reflection, this episode features intimate interviews with Joshua's former classmates and educators from Montclair’s School of Visual and Performing Arts. It’s a tribute to the weird, beautiful ecosystem where future artists are born, dreams are crushed or ignited, and identities take shape-often for life.
