This is really interesting, you hear a lot of actors and actresses say they want to head to L.A. or to New York City to get there big break. It looks like the new place to go for work may be Chicago. The article makes it sound like there are not enough actors to cover all the roles that in Chicago. The stage actors and screen actors are overlapping and that will only cause trouble. It is almost impossible for an actor to match up their schedules to do live performance and record a series at the same time. Hopefully, this will give new actors a place to go for work.
I think this is great for Chicago to step up their amount of job opportunities for actors in their community. Chicago has a very strong artistic theatre community that I think can be overlooked sometimes.
