I want to do a character in a one-woman show who's a yoga teacher from the Bronx. I could do the best accent: 'Raise yaw ahms up! Reach faw da sky!'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I like a New York accent.
I could do an American accent, if I were immersed in the accent, meaning if I were living back in Los Angeles and rehearsing and auditioning the whole time.
I work with my acting coach to help me get into character and do pronunciation drills and tongue twisters to help me deliver lines.
I've done some version of that Minnesota accent - that Midwestern accent - in sketch comedy for years. It's the quickest way to symbolize you're a mom.
In the end, to do a good accent, you just have to be a good listener.
I can do accents really well.
I'm from New York. I have a non, neutral accent. It can go any way you want.
It's my mission to get the New Zealand accent into a Hollywood show. I'm proud of the way we talk, and I'm here to represent it. Kiwis are everywhere: they're in every city of the world. I've checked. We have a voice... it's a bit of a funny one at times, but it's one that I want to promote.
I would love to do an all Laura Nyro show.
I would quite like to do a different accent or play something so different from myself because Olivia, the character I play in this film, is similar to me.
