Episode description

How do you build a historical character? How do you approach an accent? What do you wear in a period piece audition? These are questions actors face when building a real life character from history. Cast as Queen Berenice in Peacock's original series "Those About to Die," actor Lara Wolf shares her thoughts on all of these topics and more. Her credits include "Quantico," "Roxana," "The Performance," "Blindspot," "Blue Bloods," and the upcoming autobiographical film "Reading Lolita in Tehran." In today's episode we discuss short turnaround auditions, self-confidence as an actor, and the value in not just keeping an audition log, but a working log.

These are the unforgettable stories that landed Lara Wolf right here.
