Summary

This quote highlights the difference between performing in a drama versus a comedy. In drama, an actor must rely on their intuition and inner voice as there is no immediate audience reaction to gauge the effectiveness of their performance. Conversely, comedy relies on the response of the audience, even in small screenings, making it easier to determine whether it is working or not. The quote suggests that dramas present a greater challenge in trusting oneself and navigating the subtleties of the performance without the feedback of laughter or audience reaction.
