It might have also been because I came to see the play on the first night. KJ had very clear objectives, actions, and specific characteristics to his character that made him interesting. When he first met Evan, his objective was to get Evan to let Jasper and him to stay in the back. His actions to achieve his objective were to intimate and scare Evan. I

An Actor Prepares’ by Constantin Stanislavski Because I’m usually immersed in web stuff, it’s interesting to read a text whose ideas are still relevant to its target profession 70 years on.
