I get bored at the theatre a lot because I notice that there’s not always a connection between the actors. They may be technically proficient, but they’re not surprising each other. I’m thrilled by actors who make choices that are surprising. Lusia Strus Read Quote
I personally take cues directly from the script, then I like to surprise the other actors. But you must maintain control on a level and see how far you can go up, down or out emotionally. You have to balance the craft with spontaneity. Lusia Strus Read Quote
Acting is very much like a child making believe. I’m not one to become a character, but I fall in love with the character. It’s like having faith; you’re going to be that person for a while. Lusia Strus Read Quote
I pray to be of service to the playwright, the audience, the other actors and my character. Lusia Strus Read Quote
I realized that I wanted to play characters and do traditional theatre. I wanted to make believe again. I like putting on a costume and pretending to be someone else for a few hours, and I have a great respect for playwrights. Lusia Strus Read Quote
