Clown boy


 
Reading the article, Be a Clown by Sylviane Gold reminded me of how difficult and challenging it is to appear uncoordinated. I was intrigued about the idea of playing drunken 1/10th of a beat slower instead of just going with. Many actors say the best way to play drunk, is to play sober really hard, but here the actor McClure is saying to employ a mathematical concept of time to your acting and I have never even thought about acting in those terms before. I need some time to wrap my head around that concept before I can post again. Deep stuff.
