Amazing Affinity: Actors 2009
Our panel of actors — Danny Burstein, Malcolm Gets, Bill Pullman and John Douglas Thompson — share the particular moment when they realized they wanted to be actors; how the language of a play influences their portrayal of a character; what it’s like to work in a show with just one or two other actors; how they recoup after going “off script”; what kind of pre-show rituals they go through; the most useful – and least useful – director’s note they received; how it feels to step into a role made famous by another actor; and what kind of research they do to prepare for a role.
