Here too, I met lots of celebrities. I read with Chris Walken (AFTER meeting him at the Airport the first time) and with with Rita Moreno.
I'd say many people think "acting" is making stuff up or pretending.
For me, it is the externalization of
interior truth.
Sadly, most people don't know themselves or what's going on inside them emotionally or what to do about it.
My experiences as an actor trained me to keep always open the "pipeline" between what I'm feeling and what my body and face are doing.
In a world filled with deception, duplicity and false-facades, not always a good thing.
But I am what I am.
