Does this happen to anyone else?
This is kind of hard to admit - but I recently I've been contemplating quitting acting. For good. Long story, a whole other blog...
Every time I start thinking like this, I have the same dream. I had it last night. I'm sitting in the back row of an empty theatre auditorium, looking towards the stage. Cate Blanchett is sitting beside me. She's holding my hand, and she's talking to me about acting. Last night she was talking about my voice. I could barely speak, but finally I forced out the words "May - I - audition - for - you?" I guess I meant Sydney Theatre Company. It was so hard to ask, but as soon as I did, she began making suggestions to help me out.
Today I find the midday movie is Veronica Guerin, and there's Cate, and the soundtrack featuring the same haunting Sinead O'Connor sounds we had in 'Blood Brothers', reminding me how GOOD it feels to be onstage.
Always happens.

When something's meant to be, it's meant to be, and no fear is able to get in the way. I've had this happen over and over with writing; if it's in your heart, it's there to stay.
