Robert Pattinson Could Consider Doing The 24 Hour Plays

In his Elle UK Magazine June 2011 interview, Robert Pattinson expressed his desire to do a play in London, something that he has tried before.

“I’d really really love to do a play in London,” Rob admits, “But I’d just be afraid it would turn into an ‘NSync concert. Or people would come along expecting it to be something like Twilight. From the little amount of theatre I’ve done, I know that usually you can feel a push from the audience, who have come along wanting the show to succeed. But when I go to premieres, it’s more like the crowd is pulling, really wanting something from you. I always feel completely drained afterwards. It would be very strange and exhausting to have that kind of experience every night on stage.”

With his hectic filming schedule, Robert Pattinson will most probably find it very hard to commit to months of rehearsing and performing. However, if he wants to scratch the itch to do some theatre, he may want to consider doing The 24 Hour Plays, wherein writers, directors and actors come together for 24 hours in order to “write, direct, rehearse and perform six one-act [ten-minute] plays in 24 hours.”

The 24 Hour Plays have been staged on Broadway and LA.
