I believe in the purity, the simplicity of stripping yourself of everything you are, just to attain, or don the role of someone else... it takes a lot to do that, and STILL retain a bit of your own individuality. thats the mark of a great actor.

WELCOME WORLD!!!
A small little auditorium in some inconspicuous ghost town.... the audience has just started coming in.. ( audience? more like 4 or 5 people.. thats it..) ... ..... the lights guy sets up his equipment.. stubbing out his last cigarette.. he makes sure everything is in place.... the sound person starts off with a little background music.. light.. trying to get people in the mood...... the producer is still moving to and fro near the aisles.. obviously deep in thought... when the bell rings..... the audience takes its seats.. the lights in the hall are dimmed... and one man enters the stage.. from the right....... He enters the stage.. looks around... looks back behind.. from where he entered.. then keeps walking..... stops center stage.. looks at the audience..turns back to the side.... keeps walking.. and exits stage left....... THe lights come back on.. with the audience applauding to their might...... the director and the actor come up.. bow.. and the curtain call is done.....THIS MY FRIENDS .. FOR ME.. IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE---- THEATRE--- ONE MAN WALKING ON STAGE... ONE MAN WATCHING.... THE ONLY TRUE DEFINITION OF THE ART FORM THAT DEFINES LIFE- THEATRE....Welcome to my world..... I know you will be amazed, shocked, bored, pissed by what i write about.. because it naturally hovers around what i call as my flesh and blood... but let me tell you.. hate me for what I do.. but you'll still love the THEATRE.. for what it is....for it is the most magical place on the planet.
