When You Most Succeed, You

When An Acting Teacher Tells A Student 'that Wasn't Honest Work' Or 'that Didn't Seem Real,' What Does This Mean? In Life, We Are Rarely 'truthful' Or 'honest' Or 'real'. And Characters In Plays Are Almost Never 'truthful' Or 'honest' Or 'real'. What Exactly Do Teachers Even Mean By These Words? A More Useful Question Is: What Is The Story The Actor Was Telling In Their Work? An Actor Is Always Telling A Story. We All Are Telling Stories, All The Time. Story: That Is What It Is All About.

No Actor Is A Success Unless He Feels Inside Himself, As Long As He Lives, That He Is Good.
