The Actor’s Perspective | David Glover – POSNER

On preparing for the role of Posner…
Well, beyond the textual analysis and the dramaturg provided by Drew and the other actors, the extensive elocution lessons provided by our French and British coaches….I watched a lot of British movies and sitcoms. This play has an excellent “British” sense of humor and I needed to get into the style of wit. I also just thought back to my awkward years of high school.

On what is compelling about Posner…
His desire to be loved and wanted by others. It is both disturbing and endearing.

Hopeful takeaways…
To be honest, I am not quite sure. I would love to see some open dialogue on the role of education and the impact of preparation for secondary education on lives of youth.

Favorite scene(s)…
The discussion of the Holocaust and the end of the play. Both, I believe, are so emotionally charged that they just resonate with me.

Favorite Character(s)…
Timms is a front runner due to his awesome humor. However, the headmaster is also one to watch for, Jon does a phenomenal job with a great character.

On working with Available Light Theatre…
This has been a dream come true for me. I have been watching AVLT shows for some time now and being able to work with Drew and Sam and the AVLT staff is a treat. They have been truly welcoming and super-supportive.
