It’s fun being in season for a theatre show and one of the best parts is getting to see my fellow actors night after night.
I noticed my co-star wiping some dirt off a chair while no one was looking- it was her character trying to make sure her house was presentable.
It was a tiny moment; one of those blink and you’ll miss it ones.
They say that God is in the detail, and this is a great example.
Acting is a tapestry. The end product is a beautiful blanket.
But you don’t make the blanket all in one moment; you build it thread by thread.
The discipline, then, is the presence and specificity to make those micro choices moment to moment.
That’s what leads to a beautiful ‘whole’.
