I love working in New York theater.
If you judge the character, you cant play it.
Who I am gets in the way of people looking innocently at the parts I play.
I'm a lot less serious than people think, it's probably because the way my face is put together.
I've learned, having been on a lot of sets, the good news is that by definition you are surrounded by experts. They get fired if they're not - unlike in the theatre!
And it's a human need to be told stories. The more we're governed by idiots and have no control over our destinies, the more we need to tell stories to each other about who we are, why we are, where we come from, and what might be possible.
