What does the yo-yo and a mega mouth (and I mean that as a compliment) have in common? They are some unsuspecting tools of the acting trade. Join me as I talk to Paxton Kliewer about finding the tools that work for you and dealing with the critics. Paxton will show us techniques for learning lines, finding the meaning in Shakespeare’s language, and for becoming embarrassment proof. Find your Kyle Kruchmer! We’ll talk vulnerability and where the Paxton glow comes from. And the question is, with Love’s Labour’s Lost being announced in this season’s OSP lineup, will Paxton get to play his dream role of Berowne? Thankfully, the Shakespearean Shrew will not be directing, but I guarantee that both shrews will be in the audience. If you want to see Paxton’s amazing Yo-Yo skills and my complete lack of Yo-Yo skills, head to YouTube.
