All the time, as an actor, you want to be asking what's next and where things are going. If you're not asking those questions, you're not growing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Being an actor sometimes requires that you ask yourself questions you'd rather not know the answers to.
I don't ask other actors questions. I think that's too intrusive. I just watch. I don't want to be constricted to an idea of what acting is by anyone else. I want to take my own education.
As an actor, as you grow into where you fit in the industry, you're just trying to find the opportunities, hoping they grow and you get to do more.
As an actor, you don't know what is going to come next.
As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.
As an actor, you're always looking for, what do I get to do? It's not just what do I say, but what do I do, too.
I go to the theater because I need help dealing with my life; I want to see the greatest questions addressed. I need to see actors grappling with things that matter.
As an actor, you know there are things you get asked to do that you do quite well, with less effort.
As an actor, you ask yourself what you can do to put yourself in a position where you can play that role.
The thing about being an actor is that you're in the business of not growing up.
