I once read a beautiful comparison: life is like a journey on a train.And the longer I work in this industry, the more I believe that acting might be one of the most honest versions of that journey.When we are born into this profession — when we first step onto the train of acting — we meet people we believe will stay…

If you want a smart, career-spanning reminder of what long-term craft looks like, this Sigourney Weaver video is worth your time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s1ssDMUXZ4 What I loved most was how clearly she frames an actor’s job as more than showing up and saying lines.

Why, oh why, do we act...how many times were you (and still are) asked this question... Acting...there is a mystic nature to it. We feel it, we channel it even.
