Wally Kurth
Ned Ashton
SID June 17, 1997
How does it feel playing Ned?"
"It's the same way I feel when I play Wally. You know I have my good days and I have my bad days, my inspired moments and my boring moments. I enjoy wearing the nice suits, because Wally doesn't really wear suits. And I enjoy interacting with characters that I'd never be interacting with otherwise."
What do you think is Ned's biggest struggle? "Reconciling who his family wants him to be, who he wants to be for his family, and what he's feeling inside that contradicts the images he has of himself."
What changes will Ned be making in his life?" "The thing that Ned doesn't do very often is change. I think at this point in his life, Ned is going to play it moment to moment, day by day, because he's really been hurt and he's not really happy right now. I don't really think he's going to make any changes. He might just give up a litle control."
