The Actor

This piece is titled First Act/Final Act and it makes up the Actor aspect of a new series focusing on the Arts and Humanities. The viewing public tends to see only the finished work, be it play, television, or film, and do not realize the tremendous amount or work and preparation that goes into it. The actor's job is so taxing because they must empty themselves so that they become a vessel for the soul of the character. It is a tremendous drain but ultimately fulfills their need to understand the human condition.
