I wish my life was like a musical. When you put so much emotion and work into a character you play, it is sad to say goodbye to that person/character.

If you're a good actor you just play it, like a child.

And an actor's real world is no different than a child's. You get yelled at by your spouse for coming home very late because things ran over. You come home to bills to pay.

But, as with any job, you shouldn't take the work home with you. That would be double stress.

And, as any good professional like a doctor or brain surgeon, you shouldn't let your daily life affect your work.

If anything you have to learn -- and most jobs require this -- to drop your home life at the front door of home and your business life at the back door of the business.

That's why, inbetween, some people stop off at a bar or a restaraunt or a store or a gym and pamper themselves for an hour or so.

Between home and work there is nothingness.

A child has three worlds. The mud hole where they have fun and get dirty, the walk home which is nothingness and walking through the front door and getting yelled at for tracking in mud.

That is life in the real world and it happens to everyone from childhood to the grave.

It depends on the character I'm "into"

I've come off the stage in tears from the Wedding Scene in Musch Ado (I played Leonato) and it took me awhile to pull myself together. But since everything turns out ok in the end, by the end of the play, it's easy to drop character and leave the stage.

There've been other times, when I've played Jesus in Godspell or John Proctor in Crucible where it was a little more difficult
