Michelle’s first act before acting was also on stage, but as a professional ballet dancer. On this episode of the Second Act Actors podcast, we get into the details on what it really means to have a creative career.
Michelle starts out by telling me how she became a ballet dancer and what her family thought of her career aspirations. We compare and contrast acting and dancing, with Michelle noting how her dance background helped her to learn how to act and gave her the discipline to work on her skills.
We also discuss why it’s important to really, really love acting if you’ve decided to make it your career, as there’s so much more work involved than just auditioning and showing up on set. Michelle tells me about some of her memorable on stage moments as a dancer and an actor, which goes to show why you need to be dedicated if you want to act!
Michelle’s story is such a great example of what it means to be a Second Act Actor and I’m so glad that she shared it with me on this episode! If you liked it then please subscribe to the podcast.
