| My name is Jeff Thomson, and I play Pericles in Pericles. In between memorizing lines, going over blocking, eating lunch, getting some rest on the couch, or crying because the vending machine is out of Snickers, I've realized that I'm willing to take a risk and make myself vulnerable to every person in this cast. You get a feeling of trust, compassion, and that fire for acting that only high school theatre kids who spend more time memorizing scenes than math equations possess. I look foreward to growing as an actor and a person with this cast, simply because I know this. We are all covering each other's back in case something goes wrong, and I can trust that that very odd clump of people covering each other's backs are my family. |
