Meet an Actor - Mark Tucker
Name - Mark Tucker
Hometown - Bridgewater, Va
Education - Sophmore at Blue Ridge Community College, Transfer Program
Have you been involved with the company before? If so, in what capacity?
Yes, I've acted in three shows with Empty Chair. Those being Richard III, King Lear, and Measure for Measure
What about this project excites you? I really enjoy working with a small group of people for a limited rehearsal time. Having less time to prepare makes so many wonderful things happen during rehearsals and performances, and it also seems to make the cast and crew grow closer than in a larger production with an extended rehearsal period.
What do you love about theatre? What does it mean to you? This seems very cliche, but theatre does mean magic to me. It's magic in each individual person's mind. It means being able to, both as an actor and an audience, seperate yourself from everything that is happening outside the theatre space and become absorbed into another world; a world, perhaps, very similar, or very different than the one you are used to.
Check back for more from Mark and the other actors!
