Actress Sarah Snook, known for her role as Shiv Roy in Succession, has kicked off performances of her one-woman show, a revival of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray. Despite having just given birth six months prior, Snook plays 26 different characters in the “marathon” show.
Snook credits Taylor Swift with sharing a secret that helped her prepare for the demanding role. According to Snook, Swift’s approach includes no alcohol or caffeine, prioritizing sleep and staying hydrated. Snook also uses a unique memorization tactic, doing her lines on a treadmill while running at varying speeds to mimic different song tempos.
Swift revealed this method in a recent interview with Time, stating that she ran on the treadmill, singing her entire set list out loud, for three months of dance training. The actress aims to be thoroughly rehearsed, allowing her to engage with fans without losing focus.
