Offered a spot as an Extra on upcoming film?

Suzanne, to your point about closeups on camera; I have rarely NOT had my scene partner there with me on my closeup. From student films to huge Hollywood movies, it's the norm for the actor to stand n...

Acting on stage means you're performing in front of real people and the intimacy and unspoken connections make you conscious of every move you're making. Dress rehearsals are one thing, but a live play is different every time you do it.
