I met Cliff Morts in the early 1990's at Mill Mountain Theatre. He was playing the gentleman caller in A GLASS MENAGERIE. What struck me immediately was the honesty and ease in which he delivered each line. We later got to play on stage together (if only in a staged reading) and I realized that his honesty made me better. He was just SO present and in the moment. Every moment. That honesty has served him well as a television actor. As a coach, he tells his acting students "The stage is about acting, but film is about behavior." Let that one sink in. It makes a lot of sense. He was lovely to interview and it was great catching up with such a successful friend. Enjoy Cliff's readings of his own work in PRAYING SMALL at the beginning and the end of the podcast.
