Yeah, we've all heard it. "Can you work as a local?" In other words, we're not paying for any of your housing or gas etc. I am in the fortunate situation that I have family and friends I'm close enough to stay with, in every major market except, for some reason, Chicago. The majority of my acting work has been in N…

Actors- have you ever had to learn an accent for a role? If so, how did you learn it? I once had to learn a German accent for THE BEAMS ARE CREAKING. This was last century, so I had a cassette with a person teaching German accent, that I would listen to in my car during my commute.
