Meet Stephen Manas | Actor

We had the good fortune of connecting with Stephen Manas and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Stephen, any advice for those thinking about whether to keep going or to give up?
It is a infime part of yourself you have to reach out to.
Is it worth it ? Will you pass a good chance in your life to have a good experience ? What feeling is it giving you ?
Happy or Not ? Too risky or Not ?
You have to try to find an answer to many questions without really asking them
It is not about never giving up, this is stupid sometimes you have to, but sometimes you don’t have to haha 
Please tell us more about your work. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about. How did you get to where you are today professionally. Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges? What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way. What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?
About my art well what is art? Who am I to tell people about my art? I am no Mozart or Leonardo da Vinci. aha
What sets me apart from others but nothing much I’m no different. I’m just a human and I try to learn things about comedy about acting and trying to find good projects. I’m not the best writer or actor in the world. I’m just trying to do my job having fun and share good experiences with people.
It was and it is still a long journey which is wayyyyyy too long to write it here, and it was impossible to plan”ned” ?. I would say you just have to go with the flow and travel”s”?, taking risks and being applied and true with yourself help a lot.
I don’t want the world to know anything special about me other that I’m just very happy to be where I am and I am just so privileged to be able to do what I love and I don’t need to be in the center of the world or any things. People do not HAVE TO know this about me or not because there are billions of humans I don’t know anything about them so why would I want them to know things about me its not very fair haha

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
OK so I would start with Paris if he or she has never been because I know a little, it is a place you have to see and do all the touristic stuff
Then I would go to Tokyo, because it’s very fun and this city always put a smile on my face. I don’t know why.
Then, if this best friend is not in the Cinema industry, I would not take him to Los Angeles. There’s no point I would go rather to New York it is more fun and impressive.
Then I would’ve go to east Europe. OK maybe not now and to the Scandinavian countries.
And then probably in Kenya or somewhere like there where you can do a beautiful Safari
OK I understand. It might be a little too much for just a week but let’s say we have a month haha

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Well first person you have to thank is yourself, because it is YOU, YOU your will yours ;)))
Nobody takes you by the hand and makes you who you are (maybe it happens sometimes) but me nobody helped me
It is a long journey where you start alone, now many people recognise I am trying my best so I have some help, I didn’t have much starting up.
For where I am now I am thanking, India, a beautiful country who welcomed me and changed my perception of Life.
My first agent who kicked me out of her agency, and I said I to myself will do everything I can to make you regret this haha
and of course for ever Ted Lasso team for giving me my first big chance
