Jim Parsons

So once, awhile back, we spent part of a class discussing our favourite actors and I even shared one with you on the blog before (NPH!), so I decided to share another: Jim Parsons. If you’ve ever been around when I’ve gotten a text message, you’ll know how much I adore the Big Bang Theory. But a big part of the magic of that show is Jim Parson’s character, Sheldon. I think the thing I like the most about his work is his specificity to his character. Especially after all we’ve learned in this class, you really start to notice things that he does to completely embody the character, like how he utilizes objects, for example. But even further than that into the way he talks, the way he moves, the way he looks at people, and even the way he laughs. So I want to attach an article for you about him. It’s mostly about his work on the show, but it also talks about his roots in theatre in Texas. I thought was really great, for example, the fact the he was a founding member of a company in Houston. So check out the article and check out big bang theory!

Jim Parsons!
