I think some can do it and others can't.<BR/><BR/>Don't forget that we all have accents - not just you regional types!<BR/><BR/>If I acted a part as a Geordie/Mackem/Irishman/whatever, I'd be 'disguising' my own Surrey/London accent.<BR/><BR/>Learning to do accents (as an amateur actor) is as much down to having a good ear for voices as anything else.<BR/><BR/>Or, if you're a pro actor, you get a voice coach who teaches you!<BR/><BR/>Then again we saw Holly Hunter in an Irish play in the West End a year or so ago.

Dont get any ideas, I cant act, but it intrigues me.Delmontihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06743681886660037444noreply@blogger.com
