I'm going to do an open mic on December 9th 2016 where I understand some young folk are up for practice in hope of improving their skills in the arts. I wrote this for them. I have been in the acting industry for over 40 years doing this and that. Wanted to pass this on to them.
So you want to be a movie star
recognized for who you are
Get ready for a tough ride
to stay on the positive side
It can get you down
when there are no jobs around
You go on so many interviews
you start to get confused
Who am I suppose to be
which lines do I read
You walk in the room
see you're wrong for the part
But you still have to give it all your heart
Tough stuff
Is it worth it
---
You bet
When you walk on the set
the energy is so high
feels like you're walking on air
Soon you just don't care
about rejection
You throw out your lines
like a seasoned pro
Know just where to go
with your character
So wait those tables
pour that beer
Know your next role is
ever so near.
