Breaking on Stage
This is something that does happen sometimes. We are all human. … but in my opinion, there are two different kinds of intentions: on purpose … or not. I am not a fan of the breaking that happens on purpose. I am not on stage looking to cause the next laugh or something to laugh at. I am there to do my job. If I break, I evaluate what happened and come up with a solution to hold myself together if it comes up again. I don’t look for the next thing. I am not bored. I am doing a show. I am doing my job. I apologize if this offends anyone. I have friends who do this and I love them very much. It doesn’t mean I agree with their choice. Each person has a right to his or her own opinion/fun. I understand, but it doesn’t mean that I respect, agree, or like it.
Below is a video I found on youtube where a talented performer breaks on stage. It works in his show, but in a musical … not so much:
