Lindsay Burdge is one of the bravest and best actors working in indie film this decade. Her breakout role in Hannah Fidell's "A Teacher" brought her raves for her intense performance of destructive obsession. Bold choices continued in movies like Nathan Silver's "Thirst Street," Karyn Kusama's "The Invitation," and Joe Swanberg's Netflix show "Easy." Now she's taken on the role of Mandy in the long-awaited second season of Caveh Zahedi's acclaimed "The Show About The Show," after the real Mandy (Zahedi's wife) left the show mid-production. She talks about the unique experience of working with Zahedi under these conditions, how she doesn't steer away from emotionally challenging material, and her “pen-free” gestation preparation process. Plus lots more! The first Back To One Live Podcasting Event is coming to Brooklyn on May 31st. Special Guest Christopher Abbott ("Catch-22"). Click here for tickets and more info.
