Sterotypes of Actors

Leila Reid
Actor

Hi

'All actors are alcoholics?'

Some of you may remember around 6 months ago I started about thread about why do we act as it was proposed dissertation title........well guess what it got approved so I am going to be doing a psychological profile of professional, graduate and student actors and seeing if there is a difference in their profile.

BUT

I want to lay to rest some sterotypes of actors such as we are all alcohols anybody else got any??

Right thanks for that guys all of them have been put in to question form of some sort I am having some ethical issues with the sleep arounds section but condisering in other people of asked questions such as 'I enjoy casual sex'and 'I don't have to be in a realtionship to have sex I think that I should be able to put it in.

If not I can write about it in the discussion (the final section it's like a conclusion) saying that this experiment could be expanded by getting ethical approval to ask extremley personal questions.

Thanks a bunch

If you devise a survey which is anonymous, I don't think that should be a problem Leila. But if you're not sure just check with you're supervisor.

It's the best part-time job in the world if that's what you're passionate about Class Act. (and like you, I am).
My husband who is not an actor, but has sometimes been invited for audition with me when they're looking to cast a couple, says 'I'll do it for the money' - Hardly the words of a passionate actor!!

'We are all type cast the moment we go to an audition.' Lee
We are all in a sense type cast anyway in real life.
