Just before I go and
Just in case I don't manage to write on this for another eight months;
I saw this yesterday by accident and really liked the sentiment.
(If we forget the whole Nokia/branding/super power part of it at the very end that is).

Thought it was about time I..
Got thing's going here..
I'm three shows away from finishing a play I'm performing at the moment in Camden Town called "A Dolls House: revisited". I was asked to step in to the role by a friend at late notice, as they'd lost the original actor who was playing my part due to the fact that he'd decided to take up writing as a new career move.
I've never been involved with anything in my entire life, (I don't think), (acting or otherwise), where I have hated it so passionately at the start and now love it so very much at the end. I think when the little bugger is finally finished I might even miss it. The point is, that I somehow want to convey how confusing this is to me. How can such a massive shift happen in my head ? I mean I'm still the same person. I still have the same thought processes. It's still the same play.
I guess it just confirms all those things I was taught at RADA about remaining open to anything, because I guess that's exactly what I had to do. And when I actually had to do it and therefore realized I was able to do it, I did it. And you know what ? - I jolly liked doing it.
The lesson:
Remain open.
