Acting Real with Kat Foster
Kat Foster (JEAN CLAUDE VAN JOHNSON, WEEDS, TIL DEATH) interviews actors about how they use acting in their real, everyday lives – how they deal with fear, go with the flow and follow their instincts. She knows that these conversations will be both useful and inspiring for all listeners – actors and non-actors! Mostly, Kat's into exploring authenticity. In fact, out of respect for authenticity, she'd like to tell you that she wrote this blurb, but made it sound like she didn't, because that’s the convention. Hey. It’s me. Thanks for coming. I’m excited to talk ACTING REAL. I love you. Really.
