Reboot encourages TGNCNB performers of any level to join -- from performers who started their career as one particular type and are looking to navigate their resumes and theatrical futures after transitioning to performers who are beginning stage work and want to have a good idea of what to expect and how best to present themselves to casting directors in a way that feels safe and accurate.
