With Theatre, You Have To Be Ready

I'm Learning In My Old Age That The Only Thing You Can Do To Keep Your Sanity Is To Stay In The Moment.

When You Have Something To Work With, Then You Fly With It.

If You Know What It Is Before You Even Start, It's Not As Interesting. Central To Being An Actor Is Pretending, And The Adventure Of It All. That's Why You Become A Junkie For Different Kinds Of Situations. I Try To Attach Myself To People Who Really Inspire Me, And Directors Who Are Really Passionate. That Way, I Can Give Myself More Fully And Trust The Impulse Behind Why The Film Is Being Made, And I Can Be A Little More Irresponsible In Finding Out What The Character Is. I Have To Worry Less About What The Character Means If I Trust The Director.

My Dad Was A Surgeon, My Mom A Nurse, And They Were Always Out Working. I Had Five Sisters And A Brother. They Didn't Care What I Got Up To.

Trust Is Always A Factor. You've Just Got To Look At The Big Picture, And You've Got To Look At The Small Picture - The Small Picture In The Sense That You've Got To Make Every Scene Work And You've Got To Deal With What People Are Presenting You With, Too.
