Why Your Acting Choices Must Feed the Material
Saturday, 23 August, 2025
In this episode, Milton Justice explores the critical concept of matching your acting choices to the specific material you're working with. Using examples from his recent work with students, Milton demonstrates how actors often make the mistake of building relationships and emotions that don't serve the genre or tone of their project. He discusses a student working on a romantic comedy whose choices weren’t serving the genre, and another student writing a letter for "All My Sons" that was intellectually brilliant but wrong for the character. Milton emphasizes that while connection exercises are important for learning technique, actors must understand the form they're working in - whether it's a complex play like "All My Sons," a simple TV procedural, or a romantic comedy. He also shares insights about his upcoming acting studio in NYC and reflects on his experience directing "The Glass Menagerie."www.theactorlab.nycwww.idontneedanactingclass.com
