In The Envelope

The Actor's Podcast

Backstage’s “In the Envelope: The Actor's Podcast” features intimate, inspirational interviews with the most exciting names in film, television, and theater working today.

One of the things that’s so fun about Backstage is that it is also other artists other actors, other working people in this industry...when I hear other artists share their process, their experiences, how they navigate through work environments, non-work environments, and their own minds—honestly, I find it so inspiring.

Meet the Host

Vinnie Mancuso

Vinnie Mancuso is a Senior Editor at Backstage & host of “In the Envelope: The Actor’s Podcast.” He has been writing about film since 2014, creating a portfolio of reviews and features that Aubrey Plaza once publicly described as “kind of nice.”

I want every young actor to know: Don’t talk about it. There are so many actors who talk about it. Do it. And do it anywhere...as long as you keep your motor going.
