To'hold the mirror up to nature' is a noble goal for the busy harrassed young actor scratching & scrambling to pay rent & dance lessons at the same time..in a big city like New York or Los Angeles Hollywood.. At the same time of the real life daily dramas the lines of your next play..perhaps the part of Richard III..or Lady MacBeth must be not only memorized but researched and humanized..costumes often in the 'off Broadway' play must be sewed or found by the actor himself. The million dollar salarys (the golden apple) are always there to tempt one on..But it is the passion & the heat of the chase that keeps the actor mobile..sleet..snow..rain or sun. a note from $ugar cain
