My Beloved Actors and Actresses in Hong Kong

MY BELOVED ACTORS AND ACTRESSES IN HONG KONG

So I am back home in LA and in time to watch the Lakers beat the Magic tonight.  But we all know that the Magic is a great team and the next game everyone begins again at 0 – 0.   

Of course that makes me think of acting!  And all my students know that almost everything makes me think of acting.   So listen up my dear, dear artists!

Every time you pick up a script you must begin again.  Of course what you have learned will help you move through your journey faster,  exploring your character and the story BUT YOU MUST ALWAYS START AT THE BEGINNING AGAIN.

I know you might be frustrated that I say that but it is just what we do.  And we love doing it so begin at the beginning.  Everything you learned with me in our workshops will help you to move down that road faster and better but you must still walk the walk.  

Just as the great athletes who will play each game of the NBA Finals must begin again at the beginning of the next game.  Yes they learn something playing each game (hopefully) but they still begin again.  

Actually I find this joyous.  As in life, we have a failure or a disappointment but guess what, we get to get up the next morning and begin again.   

And as all of you know, I LOVE the exploration.  It is like solving a mystery before you get to the end of the book or  the movie.  

So enjoy the journey my dear Actors and Actresses.  And take the journey as often as you can because each time you explore a character and a story you get better at what you do!  

I miss you all and the joy and pleasure I get from teaching you and watching you grow.  Keep going and I hope to see you again soon.
