green describes a coarse actor as "one who can remember his lines, but not the order in which they come. an amateur. one who performs in church halls. often the scenery will fall down. sometimes the church hall may fall down. invariably his tights will fall down. he will usually be playing three parts – messenger, 2nd clown, an attendant lord. his aim is to upstage the rest of the cast. his hope is to be dead by act ii so that he can spend the rest of his time in the bar. his problems? everyone else connected with the production."
