Acting is doing!!! That is it. This is what every major drama school drills into the heads of their hopefuls. That doesn't mean you have to have been to a drama school to be a good actor. But, drama schools really are a great training or any form of training (workshops etc) And if you can go to one then I always say go. Voice, movement and text is a plus. We must work for the playwright. Tell his/her story with truth and honesty. Be true to yourself and fellow actors.

Acting is doing!!

The four keys:::

Who am I?
Where am I? Where am I going?
What am I doing?
Why am I doing?

Who, where, what, why!!! Have these and you have foundations, have access to your emotions and you have truth, have truth and you hold the key. Hold the key and so will your audience. For without them there is no point.

Thank you for your thoughts

regards

AOF
