In a high school production of Smooth Criminal I played an eccentric Scottish scientist. During a weekend rehearsal the school caretaker collapsed. The staff room doors were locked so we broke a window and I climbed in. He had an inner-ear condition and needed to remain still. I was proud of myself for rising to the challenge.
