The armoury of having any academic education does not necessarily set you up for being a good or better actor.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You know, I don't think you need to be educated to be a great actor.
I think to be a good actor you need either a good experience of life or education, or both.
There are lots of people in the world who do have the advantage of going to a good drama school and just decide that they want to be actors. There's nothing wrong with an untrained actor; they have to get their training somehow, they have to learn.
Working with a great actor is really educational.
The thing about being an actor is that you're in the business of not growing up.
Wanting to be a good actor is not good enough. You must want to be a great actor. You just have to have that.
As an actor, your life experience is just as important as studying.
I think the education I've had as an actor I would never have had at university.
Our school not only makes you an actor, it makes you understand who you actually are as well... it gives you discipline and punctuality. It also teaches you a way of life.
As an actor, of course, you want to be in something that's successful.
