Ep. 23 What is Beautiful is Seized

The Bold Acting Podcast is reflections on performance and how it relates to life. What fuels a creativity, what we covered in acting classes and how a modicum of self-awareness goes a long way towards being a person. Thank you for listening to The Bold Acting podcast. This episode is free. Feel free to share it. "What is beautiful is seized.” I read this in a Lorrie Moore story. I think it might mean beauty is momentary, what is noticed, a cell of film, a picture, a Fuqua freeze-frame, the moment your child possesses a Grecian ideal before adolescence bears its biological truths. A beginning, youth, a fresh snowfall; before, before time sullies. A spring of promise and excitement: the pink azalea that lashes out in surprised radiance for five minutes before it returns to being just a bush. google Lorrie Moore and I see a recent photo of the 60-something year old author and teacher. But lower down on the page there is a picture of another woman with a cresting wave for a haircut and a ten-gallon smile. She is a Texan and her name is Laurie Moore-Moore. Of course she’s from Texas. Moore-Moore. The human imagination is alive and well.If you like the Bold Acting Podcast talk it up at your next dinner or book club.
