Brent and Sarah Nicholls

Austin talks to Magicians Brent and Sarah Nicholls about their time together on ships, what it takes to build a show, working and creating alongside your partner, when to take advice and how to react to criticism. Listen to hear the importance of keeping the goal in mind, why you should think of yourself as a vacuum, how to become the next J.J. Bittenbinder, and a wide ranging discussion of quotes and ideas great for anyone in the performing arts that can also be applied to any endeavor including “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard” and “If everyone likes your show [or product] it is very unlikely that anyone will love it”.
