Actors From Florence
An actor or actress is a person who portrays a character in a performance. The actor performs "in the flesh" in the traditional medium of the theatre or in modern media such as film, radio, and television.

Formerly, in ancient Greece and the medieval world, and in England at the time of Willi ...
