Text The Late Bloomer Actor a Question or Comment.

A very special episode this month where I interview my son Connor Clark.  In this conversation, Connor discusses his journey and aspirations in the acting industry. He shares his experience preparing for university and the benefits of formal education in acting. 

Connor also talks about his favorite movie and TV show locations explored while we enjoyed a family holiday in the USA over Christmas and the New Year. Also, the impact of a Broadway show, namely Back To The Future (the Musical)  on his perception of theater. 

He reflects on when he first knew he wanted to be an actor and the importance of finding a supportive group of actors.

 Finally, Connor reflects on what he has learned from my acting journey and the importance of the business side of acting.
