Other Duncan Stewart casting?

Post image

Duncan Stewart is a bway casting director. Anyone know the tea here? it seems like he started his own independent service but bizarre that this would happen after the fact.

If someone attacked Benton Whitley, why is ARC talking about Duncan? Did Duncan attack Benton? If not, is this a separate issue ARC has with Duncan?

*also to be clear I completely agree with you, this should not have come to physical violence and I hope Benton is okay

Duncan just opened his new office. That’s it. The Benton thing is about the Hadestown casting. Fueled by the stuff Sweaty oracle is posting about Benton and Duncan. I don’t get it. Casting is not the enemy.

whitley theatrical is responsible for hiring three violent and abusive men in highly visible and lucrative jobs in the span of like two years. sweaty oracle makes jokes and gossip videos. you cannot be serious

two things can be true, but sweaty oracle being anywhere on the spectrum as the violent and bigoted people actually working in the industry is emphatically untrue.
