Something Else – 27th Oct with Bendeguz Devenyi-Botos
A couple of weeks ago (my apologies for the delayed post) I interviewed Bendeguz Devenyi-Botos on the show. Bendeguz is an actor in the fringe theatre & film scene, and also was a contestant on Channel 7’s ‘Beauty and the Geek’ this year. On the show I talked with Bendeguz about his journey into becoming an actor and some of the difficulties he faced with this career choice. We also talked about his upcoming play ‘The Beau Defeated’ and he performed a monologue from the play. And finally we discussed his experiences on ‘Beauty and the Geek’ and how going on the show has affected his acting career.
In the interview Bendeguz gives some tips on how to follow an acting career including some great places to get training in the craft of acting. These include the Australian Theatre for Young People (https://www.atyp.com.au/index.php/) and the Sydney Theatre School (https://www.sydneytheatreschool.com/).
Bendeguz’s upcoming play ‘The Beau Defeated’, which we discussed on the show, is currently being played at The Figtree Theatre (Gate 4, UNSW High Street
Kensington, Australia) and its last three performances are on the 11th 15th & 18th of November at 7.30pm.
