Earl Cave.
April 2020
Born in Brighton. Based in London. Acting. Music. Fashion. We had a nice vibe talk with Earl knowing a little bit more about him.
When and what made you decide you wanted to act?
I’d always loved theatre as a kid. I studied it at school. I never really thought of acting on screen initially. If felt so far away from what I was doing at school. A casting director came to my school looking for extras and gave me a shot at a small speaking role. My scenes never actually made it into the final cut but I got a taste and I loved it.
"Be kind".
If you could describe in three words what acting makes you feel, which ones would you choose?
Pretty, pretty good.
What do you enjoy most from the entertaining industry and what do you hate the most?
I love working with new people. And people I know aswell. I guess I like working with people!
What’s your biggest resource of self expression?
Probably playing the piano. I think music contains the most self expression. I love the piano.
What’s the thing that makes you vibrate more inside of you?
Playing music and also drinking lots of coffee.
How important is fashion for you and how do you manage to express yourself with it?
I don’t know, I’ve always loved what people wore in the 50s and 60s and most of the 70s. The mafia dress well too, like New York/Italian gangsters, you know? Fat gold rings and bracelets, string vests, large lapels.
