in which Richard Armitage describes his routine of lying down in semi-supine every morning as part of his healthy life style:
‘It’s a way of helping my voiuce production and control, but when my stress levels are high during filming, it gives me a break. I lie on the floor with a book over my head….(SURELY HE MEANS UNDER??)…….while I focus on the exercise. On the shoot on South Aftica I fell asleep pretty much everytime I did it.’
It is true. if I am in need of sleep, and I lie down in semi-supine on the floor….well it’s the best cat nap I ever have, and my back is soooolong and wide when I wake up.
The picture is of Misha a theatre student of mine lying down in the dressing room at the Criterion Theatre in London’s West End before the ArtsEducational Showcase this March.
Bit cramped but still possible for getting the voice and the nerves sorted.
