@Donotbelieve No I'm a retired actor who in time has had to deal with overacting understudies determined to make their mark in their rare chance to shine.
When you've been opposite an understudy who stretches the the word "bleed" to sixteen syllables while playing Shylock in what he believes to the eponymous role in the merchant of Venice it is enough to make you cringe and swear off Shakespeare for life
@LenHazell53 Overacting is essential when performing a Victorian melodrama extract during a music hall review.
But even then, it has to be carefully overacted to be comedic.
@Petter Very true, I played William Corder in "Murder in the red Barn" in my twenties, a real chewing up the scenery role, mostly acted like James Finlayson on crack.
