- NEW!
by rdrainer on October 31st, 2007
If I ever thought so, I was wrong. Now, I'm in a house with guy from Leicester, England, a son of a Scottish-born Irishman. We spend a lot of time talking, discussing politics, construction, theater, history, etc., and I'm sure that his worst fears include that my accent might rub off on him and he might start sounding like a Brit redneck or something else too bizarre for his family to recognize.
The last time I tried to fake an accent and really hoped it would work, was one night in a bar in NYC after a rehearsal session with an Irish theater and I was hoping to get a part in a subsequent production. I faked an accent and the person to whom I spoke, a stranger to me, let me know in no uncertain terms that I was full of it. That was the last time. Never again.
