"Before last night, I had refused to have anything to do with Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest--refused to read the script, endure the ubiquitous stagings, watch the film. Perhaps this is excusable? High school and undergraduate years proved to be one nearly-unending stream of badly acted Earnest scenes. I am happy to say...that The Distracted Globe has cured me of such snobbery. |
"Jerrold made me feel comfortable to explore and try everything I would come up with, no matter how crazy. It helped me get a much richer performance... He also complimented me on nuances that I didn’t even realize some directors would take time to notice".--Bailey Varness, Los Angeles-based actor and writer |
