My absolute favorite thing about theatre is the adopting and characterization of your role. I’ve always found it fun to step into someone as far off from me as I can be. Whether loud and annoying, old and slow, cranky with an attitude, or so much more. It’s fun to create their voice, their walk, their passions and ideas, the way they think. I think the core thing to do with a part and to be the best actor you can be is how well you take on your role and not just settling for the same thing every time. Because of this my favorite scene I’ve been in so far is one I did this past year in my friend Aarynn’s “Odd Couple” scene. I played Olive and got to be sloppy and carefree with my feet up, sweeping trash on the floor, and “proposing” on a table. But honestly I like a show or scene I’ve been in with a drastic opportunity to be a special character.
