So many of us know what it feels like to doubt ourselves, to ask ourselves: am I doing this right? This week, Milton talks about what it takes to own a play or piece of text with confidence when striving for greatness. The time, the work, the patience is endless, as is the fortitude required to remain steadfast throughout a career. In this rare and inspiring episode, Milton shares several personal stories of how he managed to get back up and move forward after getting knocked down. “This is not a profession for the faint of heart,” he says. “The field is littered with the bodies of people who gave up acting. And nobody cares.” Have an acting question for Milton? Email us at: questionsformilton@gmail.com
