		<title>Acting in Australia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are some brilliant Actors in Australia.  Oh sure, there are those that you&#8217;ve heard of &#8211; like Sam Worthington, Cate Blanchette, Geoffrey Rush. All wonderful Actors. They&#8217;re the conspicuous, bright coloured fruit on top of the tree. They get plenty of sunshine, and they are considered the pick of the bunch.
In Australia, we have [...]]]></description>

		<title>More Thoughts on Acting by Actors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Acting is half shame, half glory. Shame at exhibiting yourself, glory when you can forget yourself &#8211; Sir John Gielgud
 
I&#8217;m looking for the truth. The audience doesn&#8217;t ome to see you, they come to see themselves &#8211; Julianne Moore
 
I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way [...]]]></description>

		<title>Some Thoughts on Acting by Actors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Acting is not about being someone different. It&#8217;s finding the similarity in what is apparently different &#8211; Meryl Streep
Acting is all about honesty. If you can fake that, you&#8217;ve got it made &#8211; George Burns
We must overcome the notion that we must be regular&#8230;it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and leads you [...]]]></description>

		<title>On The Set</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you heard&#8230; Oh, sorry&#8230; Happy New Year. Now where was I? Oh yes, have you heard about those Actors who roll up onto a set with nothin&#8217; but their personalities? They might have prepared their lines and got them down just fine, and they might have just what the Director needs for the gig, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gettin&#8217; Down</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You know that thing about Actors being a fraternity? How we&#8217;re all in it together and, although it&#8217;s very competitive, that it&#8217;s great when you&#8217;re in the company of your peers? Makes you feel all fuzzy inside, don&#8217;t it? Well, it&#8217;s a warm feeling alright. It comes from a feeling that we&#8217;ve chosen such a [...]]]></description>

		<title>That Moment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is quite clear to me that acting is about doing what is required. We don&#8217;t have to think about who our character is &#8211; as David Mamet says, &#8220;there is no character. There are just lines on a page&#8221;. Why get all muddled and mixed up about stuff like emotional memory or sense memory? [...]]]></description>

		<title>Training</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I experienced an encounter which happens from time to time. It concerns what I see as such a serious threat that, like some virus, if it is not identified for what it is, it spreads and spreads and can virtually render a body inert. The body? Acting. The threat?

Make no mistake &#8211; there are [...]]]></description>

		<title>An Actors Problem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a problem / dilemma / question that arises most frequently when we come to an audition with a new piece that we&#8217;ve learned to be greeted by a Director we&#8217;ve never met: &#8220;What does she want?&#8221;. I often meet Actors contorted into all shapes and sizes of anxiety about how to squeeze themselves into, [...]]]></description>
