Top 10 Misconceptions about Theatre Folk
10. Not all theatre people are leftist, gay, or gay-sympathizing, alcoholic gadabouts of questionable morals…though if you aren’t, it makes the rest of us suspicious.
9. We’re not all overeducated intellectual elitists; some of us are undereducated dilettante snobs.
8. No, we don’t all like putting on the tights and makeup (although some of us insist on it no matter what the play).
7. Frankly, we don’t know how we “learn all those lines” either.
6. Most of us don’t care who wrote Shakespeare’s plays, it’s just fun to fight about in front of civilians.
5. Musical actors are not always chipper and perky; tragedians are not always brooding and morose. Although each can still annoy the hell out of the other.
4. We are not self-centered, although why the paper wouldn’t print my “10 Great Things About Me” list is beyond my immense comprehension.
3. We all weren’t bad at sports in high school—but in Drama Club, you get to stay out late, dress up, you don’t have to worry about who’s winning, you interact with members of the opposite sex, and you have very little chance of breaking both knees and thus wrecking your chances of a scholarship.
2. Yes, we often get paid…no, it’s never enough to live off of.
1. Directors are not delusional dictators who clamp down on actors with an iron fist using abuse and threats of firing…directors get producers to do that stuff.
