Back to the London of Reality

Sat at computer. Free internet again. Trawling through facebook and castings looking for the next job.

It's actually the first long term acting job that I've done where I haven't come back and felt a bit depressed about having nothing lined up. Strange. But Edinburgh was inspiring. As Three Weeks put it in their review of us - there was 'Fire in our bellies'.

IS that what keeps the poorer end of the acting professional going? A fire. A hope for that break. A faith in our own abilitites and a faith that there is the right job out there.

I once made a posting on a site called Castingcallpro regarding Faith in the Acting Profession. It's amazing how people jump at the opportunity to scorn any types of faith. It's believing in something that is beyond our normal understanding. God or other. Is it that important? And do we have the right to look down and rubbish claims of faith?

Thought I'd move away from Edinburgh and throw a few life things out there.
