Episode Synopsis

On this episode of the Second Act Actors podcast, I’m talking with massage therapist and actor Patrick Stiles!. Join us for an interesting discussion on perfectionism, balancing auditioning with another job and just what the hell you’re supposed to do with your hands when you’re acting on stage! Patrick begins by telling me his story and how he’s managed his career since he stopped dancing and started acting. We talk about learning to “act small” for TV and how we’ve overcome our negative thoughts about casting directors so that we can outlast other actors in the industry.  Listen out for Patrick’s crazy story of working on a show in Russia that constantly received bomb threats and for his inspiring and gentle words of wisdom that might help carry you through a fallow period of acting work. There’s also some good advice here if you want to know how to fit acting around running your own small business! If Patrick’s story resonated with you, then subscribe to the Second Act Actors podcast to hear more episodes and to help the podcast to grow.Links Second Act Actors websiteSecond Act Actors on InstagramSecond Act Actors on FacebookSecond Act Actors on YouTube Janet McMordie websiteJanet McMordie on InstagramJanet McMordie on LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.
