Yeah, grad school sounds appealing. The immersion of it.

I got to do some of it in grad school, and really would love to do more. It's SUCH a great way of freeing yourself to be in the moment. (Though of course it doesn't work for every actor.) Have you done any work with the Suzuki method or Viewpoints? It uses some similar techniques. FWIW, as someone who's directed you, I TOTALLY think you should do grad school. You would get so much out of it. Yeah, mask work is really amazing, if you can do it with someone who knows what they’re doing.
