The Barrow Group’s production of John Yearley’s Triptych closed this week. For sixteen performances I greeted people as they entered the theater and hugged them as they left. Several times after the show’s curtain call I watched people so moved by the experience that they couldn’t get out of their …

Chris Wells: Confidence vs Arrogance – Advice for Actors
Acting is the most intimate, the most personal, of the arts. We literally use ourselves — our bodies, our faces, our voices — and also our impulses, which is like exposing our psychology, warts and all. This brings unique challenges, not only in the work itself but in how we …

Tricia Alexandro: Don’t Make it Wrong
Years ago in class, something was going awry in a scene I was in and Seth said, “Don’t make it wrong.” It was a revelation to me. Instead of covering up this “mistake” or hurrying on to the next bit so I could distance myself from the flub of a …

Belinda Mello: Shift Perspective, Shift Experience

Lee Brock: Rainy Days
I came into the apartment after walking home in the rain. My husband was in London. Trigger, my dog, was with my nephew. Rachel, my daughter, was out and about. The apartment was quiet. Very quiet and clean. I haven’t been in the apartment too often experiencing this type of …

Tricia Alexandro: Baby Steps
“Her TikTok video went viral!” “His first book became a New York Times bestseller!” As a culture, we love a fast-fame story. It’s a lot sexier to think about a meteoric rise than a consistent practice that, over many years, leads to a desired end result. As an actor, a …
