Nice work. It'd be tempting to overact and take the easy route by being ' crazy ', but your performance was subtle and genuine. Good luck on your road to an acting career !

Keep playing with that pacing, you did a good job speeding up and slowing down.

A few thoughts, it looked like you looked down to check your lines. If you can find a cookbook holder and set the side up in your sight line, you can have your lines right there with nobody the wiser!
I would also play with volume changes if you're playing a crazy person.

But good work.

Awesome job Jonathan! Loved the pacing and calm "crazy!" Technical stuff was great.

A couple thoughts: Would love to see even more of a revelation on your face when you think you might be Jesus. How would that make you feel? When you think you might be a hobo, let us see you picturing that image of you in a box car with wine and a straight razor.

Just my 2 cents! Nice work!
