Today’s JELLYBEAN: “It’s better to do the wrong thing fully, than the right thing cautiously”.
Taken from Jim Kirkwood in his Advanced Acting Class, Diablo Valley College, 2001
This is THE hardest principle to stick to on stage. So much of our lives is structured around being right, being correct. The most difficult muscle to flex in the actor’s instrument is the ability to REVEL in the flaws.
We are made of mistakes, imperfections, some small and some big. Working towards perfection isn’t acting; it’s a pageant.
