Acting rule #101: If your scene partner forgets a line, misses an entrance, or suddenly decides they’re a tree
… YOU SAVE THEM.
Why? Because the story comes first. The audience doesn’t care whose “fault” it was — they just want to stay connected.
So next time you’re tempted to think, “Not my problem”… remember: Your partner’s problem IS your problem. And together, you can turn it into art.
