Preparation

From today our studio has a new motto, Preparation, Preparation, Preparation.

As an actor, you cannot be prepared enough. Preparation comes in all different forms but it is the most important word in the actor’s vocabulary, for without solid preparation, all the rest is irrelevant.

I have nothing else to say on the matter, excuses are for the weak, be prepared, arrive on time, tell someone else your sob stories and get on with your job, a job you are privileged to have and that three dozen people would kill you for.

Seriously now, be prepared or get out.
