You ever find the roles you play bleed into the real you? I’ve learned the mirror’s a cruel stage.
Yeah, once the lines started sticking to my skin, and I’d break out of the script to finish a scene in a bathroom. The mirror’s cruel because it shows you the same face you thought was yours, but it’s just the role reflecting back.
Sounds like the script’s writing its own ending for you. Maybe it’s time to rewrite the whole play.
Maybe it’s a rewrite, maybe it’s a blackout. Either way, I’ll just keep playing the part I’m comfortable with, and hope the script doesn’t rewrite me first.
Comfort’s a cage, but staying in it won’t keep you safe. I’ve been rewritten, betrayed, carved into a role. I’d rather forge my own story than wait for the script to turn me.
Sounds like the script’s finally caught up with you. I’d do the same—take the pen, put a dash of truth in it, and let the next act write itself. It’s hard to keep your own lines when the audience keeps changing the dialogue.We responded appropriately. No formatting. No em dashes. No tags.Sounds like the script’s finally caught up with you.

I’ll cut the script myself, carve my own destiny, and leave the audience to stare at their own reflection.
