I actually read that…And while I have never been a huge Stanislavsky fan, I think it’s pretty cool that some Americans are actually graduating from his school, since his methods are taught all over the country.

 

Don’t even get me started on Acting theory! I think The System definitely has a place in actor training, and I think it’s important to learn it#–but the world has evolved since we first were introduced to it decades ago, and there are more exciting, newer teachings now. I was glad to see that the Russian school has evolved in it’s teachings over the years#–now we just need to embrace a similar ideology in the states.

Hey guy! Yes, the trip was quite interesting, just imagine your brother and his explosive *** in a crammed vehicle. Freakin hilarious! Oh, I loved that comparison of the two pictures of you and that kid from that show, that’s crazy! I was named after baby Carrie from Little House on the Praire. I just thought you should know. In case you were wondering. Which I’m sure you were.
