Took a break from doing improv to overcome a fear. I have not done Theater Acting for about 23 years since I was a Theater Major at Simpson College. I love to perform but repeating the same lines over and over again every single night sucked the enthusiasm right out of me.
To be honest I am not really a fan of theater, musical theater especially it just is something that I fell away from having interest in very quickly. I respect the skill & talent of anyone that can do it, in fact they are the best actors working in this world but I just had difficulty delivering lines with the same genuine emotion every day. A few years back I was tapped to be in a play. It was modern & I loved the script, could envision the play in my head as I read the lines. Seeing the character & exactly how I would portray it.
It rekindled my desire to perform live theater again… And my first role
And, designed the poster for the show:
