I’ve never seen a schedule where you just go in two hours almost every day of the week and then all day on one day. Then you shoot it at night with an audience and you’re out of there.
Meaning of the quote
This quote from American actor Lee Majors describes a unique work schedule for actors. Instead of the typical schedule of working a few hours every day, actors sometimes work for a full day once a week and then perform the final product in front of an audience at night. This type of schedule allows actors to focus on their work in long blocks of time, rather than spreading it out over multiple shorter sessions throughout the week.
