An exploration of Playing Opposites
Bring independent sensibility to mainstream productions.
Play Comedy absolutely straight with high commitment and attention to detail.
Play Drama with loose playfulness and abandon with an eye for patterns, games, irony, opportunities for levity at any cost.
Play the opposite of the obvious or surface emotion. Play anger calm, play excitement understated, play rage with a smile, play joy with fire…
Play opposite of archetypes, play the evil villain with kindness and vulnerability, the noble hero with bite and venom, the innocent ingenue with sexuality and cunning.
