“give me same thing - only different!”

Ahh, classic Hollywood. So cute!

Let’s just call this what it is: a creative challenge.

Just kidding, it’s not a challenge. Not by any stretch! What is wrong with you? Oh you’re nervous. OK I get that. Well chill out, darling! This classic phrase is a gift. Uttered in the audition room and on set, it couldn’t be further from any sort of challenge. It’s permission! As an actor, it is exactly what you want to hear! Because what follows is the ultimate opportunity to surprise and delight. To command a room full of money and fear to relax, trust, and fall in love with their jobs all over again. May you forever be the recipient of an open invitation such as this! For in response will you truly be able to advocate for your most impactful quality as an actor.
