York or LA or Montreal if you want to be
an actor it’s a little difficult to know
where to start or you know how to go
about it so today I’ll be interviewing
Joe samal the president of the Montreal
School of Performing Arts to give you a
little advice you get a lot of one of
the actors coming in here of course and
what would you say to those who are
interested in the acting business don’t

lot of people who are interested in
acting they don’t know exactly what
acting is and pretty much when they do
call me and they want to you know I want
to be an actor and so on and so forth I
pretty much tell them I go well it’s
just like being a doctor or lawyer be
the only difference is that after you
spend so many years of training and
articling or in doctors case doing your
residents an internship you’ve got a job
acting you can keep on training and
training and training and there’s no
guarantees and you get a lot of people
who don’t quite understand that it’s
actual training and not like just pure
talent um I think everybody acting is
one of the most um misunderstood
professions people don’t realize how
much work is entailed and we get there
