There's a tremendous amount to be gained from being a performer, and being an artist, and being an actor.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being an actor is a much more structured life than being a musician.
I guess some people want to be performers because they want to be famous.
As an actor, you hope to find roles that are challenging to you as an artist. Then if you are truly blessed, you will find that it also carries a message that you can impart to your audience.
The goal as an actor is to constantly surround yourself with amazing artists who challenge you and make you grow.
I'm an actor, but I'm an artist.
When you work with actors, what you're hoping to absorb is good ways to be an actor as opposed to how to handle being famous.
Being an actor means being an instrument for someone else. I want to give myself completely.
For most artists, you take what you have and who you are, and then you expand on it to make it more entertaining. Everyone knows actors aren't the same people that they play in movies, but people somehow expect musicians to be a certain way all the time!
I always thought that it was every performer's dream. That's the epitome of being an artist, being able to express song, dance and acting in a live theatre setting and really connecting with an audience on that level.
I think it's much richer and much more fun to be an artist than to be anything else. I can't think of a better life than acting.
