G'morning

While waiting ....

On this day in 1985 - Yul Brynner appears in his 4,500th performance of "The King & I"

Which works out to be over 12 years (at one a day) of being barefoot and still getting paid.

We think of actors bouncing from gig to gig, and hear a lot about burnout on long running TV shows, but with a stage actor... once you get into the groove of a play you're set. No new lines to learn. No new scenes to block out. Just slip into your costume hit the stage, and do something you've probably done a hundred times before. The pay isn't as good, but if the play is a long running one you're working (and getting paid) every performance.

Good morning folks.

After doing a 6 part run, it was exhausting. Can't imagine how tired Broadway performers must be

Oh yeah. If you aren't in the groove stage acting is worse than running a marathon. And I know this personally. This will sound odd, but work with me.

Jerry Lawler..

Not a physical fitness nut by any measure but he could have a high tempo wrestling match for 60 minutes (3 hours in one case) because he was completely relaxed and comfortable. Lawler used to chew gum in matches, just to give himself something to do. How could he get away with it?

He was in the groove. "I'm going to do this, they are going to do that, I'm going to steal 3 seconds here, and we are going to do this" Boxing, football, stage, pro wrestling, the biggest danger is getting so worked up you get blown up just on the way. You put so much pressure on yourself you've burnt out your energy reserves before you've even started.

Which is why TJ, with another week to settle in, could have done that role in his sleep. Because he would have been in the groove. That is why TV acting is such a godforsaken grind.

You never get in the groove. You might get your character down perfect, better than the writers for the show, but you have to adapt to something new every single day. The Arrowverse shows, hardly the gold standard of modern acting, were so tiring on the actors the day shooting wrapped they'd be flying off to Hawaii or Vegas just to completely veg out for a couple of weeks.

Ahem. That should be "You Old Fart". I... I feel abandoned. You stripped me of my identity sir! Anyone can be old!

But only a select few can be an old fart.

I am wounded. Wounded I say.
