The Actor
Anybody who has ever watched any play, film or TV drama can recognise the difference
between good and bad acting. What one actor makes look easy, natural and believable
another will look implausible and sometimes simply unbelievable. The progression
from the latter to the former makes up the difficult journey that all actors must
make. Some make it sooner than others and some just never get there. An important
point, however, is that you can never relax and assume that you have made it -
Rehearsals seem to go on forever but slowly and surely, though you often don't realise
it, things come together. Ideas get bounced around between the cast and producer
and the cast start to 'get into character'. A word of warning -
If you fancy 'treading the boards', come along to the theatre, join up and find out when the next audition takes place.
