The Director's Chair: March 2008
http://directors-chair.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 26, 2008. Understudies, who needs 'em? Understudies, what are they and why do I need them? Brilliantly talented actors, in my professional opinion, are frequently the least reliable individuals on God’s green earth. Talent is not a guarantee of discipline which is an essential ingredient for success in almost any endeavor in life. So, how do you know when it’s time to pull the plug on the wayward virtuoso in favor of the understudy? A couple of factors I recommend you keep in mind. F...

The Director's Chair: February 2009
http://directors-chair.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 3, 2009. Much can be done to dress up the outward appearance. There is much to be said for the role of imagination in character development. But, it comes down to finding some point of connection, some way in which the actor can identify the desire of his character and find in himself something equal that resonates.

Sunday, March 25, 2007. Things to avoid in professional auditions! Things Not To Do At An Audition. Until you've been auditioning for a while, it's usually difficult to find your own way and style of conducting yourself at the audition. We all have made mistakes and kick ourselves later when we realize how unprofessional or inappropriate it might have been. Hey, that's the only way we learn what not to do again! You get the point.

The Greenroom: The Three Basic Challenges
http://actorsgreenroom.blogspot.com/2008/03/three-basic-challenges.html
Tuesday, March 18, 2008. The Three Basic Challenges. Pretending on Purpose part2. The craft of acting is so varied, with each style and period demanding its own set of rules, customs and techniques. When I teach about acting I try, at least with my beginners and intermediates, to keep to techniques that cross the boundaries and apply to most, if not all, styles of acting. Second BE HEARD. Immediately we think of a drama teacher standing at the back of the theatre yelling, "I can't hear you! Well, louder ...

The Greenroom: Why you need a warmup routine
http://actorsgreenroom.blogspot.com/2007/03/why-you-need-warmup-routine.html
Sunday, March 11, 2007. Why you need a warmup routine. Nothing better than listening to that radio station that won't quite tune in. Or having your digital cable pixellate into meaningless squares right at the climax of your favorite movie,yeah, good times! We as actors frequently give static to our audiences. What do I mean by that? When you drop out of character, that's static. When your facial expression doesn't match up with what you are trying to say, that's static! So as an actor your job is to pur...

The Greenroom: February 2008
http://actorsgreenroom.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 28, 2008. So, what do I mean when I say, acting is pretending is purpose? Well, you remember cops and robbers, or house, or cowboys and Indians? We all used some variation of role playing in our childhood. These game usually were selected by the bossiest kid on the playground and they would continue until no one could take anymore random rule changes and then we'd all go hang upside down on the monkey bars to relieve the stress. That was pure pretend! Mark R. Morris, Jr.
