Question

angels! no sleep in heaven, or bethlehemmmmmm!

yea I'm a bit bored and I can't stop singing spring awakening. all you theatre geeks like me out there, why do you love it? why do you do it? I know I'd rather live my life being on stage/screen dirt poor than being some rich doctor or something. just wondering what others' reasons are. I love it. :) I am truly safe and at home when I am playing a role.

Answer 1

Why do i love it, huh?

I dunno... i think i actually have a sort of love/hate relationship with my "craft"

I love it because there's no greater adrenaline rush than being onstage with the lights in your face, in front of a bunch of people doing something that's making them laugh or think or whatever... entertaining, telling a story...

I hate it though because if i didn't love it so much then i'd be free to pursue a "normal" life and probably have more money, security, etc.

C'est la vie
