what they don’t tell you about acting, what they hide behind the expensive courses and psychobabble theories, is that it’s mostly very silly and anyone can do it.
you go into any random basement in this country and you’ll probably find a buncha folks making music together. let’s start doing that with plays! write something fun, wear kooky costumes from thrift store clothing pieces, paint a backdrop on a white sheet, et… voilà!

Did this for the first time back in July. I have never chain smoked more cigarettes or laughed harder than I did that night. Go to a drama bookshop or a library, pick out something random with an ensemble big enough to fit your group, and just go crazy. It’s pure fun and so silly but also really creatively engaging. We read some new-ish work called Family Furniture and it was pretty terrible, but it was a great time stumbling through it. All you need is a living room and the chutzpah to get choicey and you have a night made!

A very pretty word, and an action which has its moments in our daily lives. it doesn’t do you well to die on every hill.
