If we lived for reality, we'd be dead, every last one of us. Only dreams keep us going.
Michael ShurtleffAn expression of feeling isn't worth anything unless it interferes with what the other actor in the scene wants.
Michael ShurtleffAn actor is looking for conflict. Conflict is what creates drama. We are taught to avoid trouble [so] actors don't realize they must go looking for it. Plays are written about...the extraordinary, the unusual, the climaxes. The more conflict actors find, the more interesting the performance.
