Kurt was drawn to acting by the sense of unity that it gave him. Since he caught the acting bug, he’s been in plays, on hit TV shows and in films and he’s taught acting too. In this episode of the Second Act Actors podcast, we talk about imposter syndrome, life experience, learning acting and Kurt’s exciting Artist 2 Artist project. 

Kurt uses his acting coach perspective to list some of the most important skills that you need to know in order to be successful as an actor. He gives a great reason why your self-tapes should never be 100% perfect and why you shouldn’t give yourself unlimited takes to try to nail your performance. 

We talk about the need to have feedback about the work you make and Kurt tells me the story behind his platform, Artist 2 Artist, and how it’s helping new actors to break into the industry. He also gives advice on other ways to up your skills as an actor and to make connections with the right people. 

This episode of the Second Act Actors podcast will give you a different perspective on the craft of acting and you’re bound to learn a lot. If you enjoyed it, then please subscribe to the podcast and leave a rating or review.
