Professional actresses can be found working in dinner theaters, major theaters and repertory groups. Many travel with theater groups or help in the training of other actors for larger roles. Actresses are required to memorize scripts, research characters and rehearse performances. They may be required to confer with others, including directors or other actors, to correctly display the right emotions, gestures and facial expressions. An actor brings characters to life through their performances in various forms of entertainment, including theater, film, television, and other media. Actors use their talents to embody the personalities, emotions, and experiences of fictional or historical figures, effectively communicating their stories and connecting with audiences on an emotional level.
