<p>One of my daughter’s friends just told me about a series that is available on youtube, about the life of an aspiring MT actor living in Manhattan. It’s called The Battery’s Down. I watched one episode just now and really enjoyed it.
Look for it on youtube if it is sounds interesting to you.</p>
<p>Oh…that is one of my daughter’s and my favorite series!! The talent of the performers and writers is amazing (and yet, it terrifies me, too – to think of all those super-talented folks out of work, and my kid wanting to start auditioning for MT programs…)</p>
<p>It is a great show! Jake Wilson has done an amazing job with it.</p>
<p>Unfortunatly there will be only 2 more episodes before the series ends on December 1st. 
I have a feeling that it was getting to be too financially straining for him to do it…but I am not sure about that.</p>
<p>Anyway, I hope that this brings great things for him in the future. I have throughly enjoyed watching this show for the past year and a half. :)</p>
<p>anothermom thank you so much for posting this. I have seen all 14 episodes in a couple days since reading this post. Totally love it as does my daughter. Glad I didn’t have to wait 18 mos as they posted and now can’t wait till 10/15 and the next one. Although I have to say Episode 12 was really sad :(</p>
<p>I haven’t gotten that far yet, but am watching it steadily. So sad to hear it will not be continued after this season.
What incredible talent is on display, and a great reality check for kids who think “oh, I want to be a star on Broadway”.</p>
