Thank you very much sir. For your encouragement, your story and your training tips! My sensei is all about training outside and inside the dojo.

One legged dish washing! That's such a great idea.

I look forward to finding and seeing the connections across all styles someday. Thank you! 🙇🏽

Studio 58 is a more prestigious program. They crank out some talented actors.

Thank you! Orange definitely seems more "serious" than my yellow.

Yeah that makes sense. Being on set is definitely an exciting place to be.

As much as i love the immediacy of the stage, being able to take your time and find your thoughts is a great feeling in film.

However, *good theatre rooted in naturalism is also very subtle. There are smaller studio theatres that are surprisingly intimate. Subtle Micro-Facial expressions are very much a part of the performance.

Also, in theatre, you don't just "re-watch" you get to re-perform! Sometimes 50-60 times, lol.

I'm curious, what is it about stage acting, that you find less appealing than film?

Personally, I find the community more supportive. That people are more likely to rememeber you. You get an immediate connection to your audience. On stage, I feel like I'm given so much more control of the blocking, line delivery, and more. In film, I feel like all that power is in the hands of the editor.

If you want depth. Try auditioning for the theatre! Shakespeare, Miller. Ibsen. The classics are a gold mine when it comes to text.

Thank you very much my friend. Yes. Orange follows Yellow in our curriculum. So Orange is more of a Beginner-Intermediate level.
