Pierce and Georgie discuss if acting is a career, lifestyle or, possibly, both. There may be no definitive answer but listen in to find out if a life in acting can mean a change in lifestyle whether you are supplementing already varied passions with acting as just one of many interests or embracing it as a full-time job.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘There’s so much stigma about pursuing acting as a career. It’s often made out to feel like it’s not a real job or it doesn’t have value for some unknown reason.’-Pierce
‘It’s really important to remember that just because you are getting opportunities and people are helping you to get those opportunities, it’s good to be grateful but it doesn’t mean you have to bend over backwards and do things you don’t want to do.”-Georgie
‘It just goes to show that no matter where you live chances are that if you do take the decision to move to London, Manchester, Birmingham, wherever your closest media hub is, if you are a new actor chances are you’re going to end up working outside of those places anyway.’-Pierce
