Being an actor, we're so dependent on the writers.

Usually in stories there are big problems in the beginning or couples are pulling away, there's a lot of bitterness.

You know, I don't think, you know, therapy never ends, really.

I come from a working-class background in Queens, New York.

It's deeply personal to watch actors go to those dark places. It can be scary, so you channel them all your love and energy, and you know you'll be safe on the other side.

Some jobs you do - maybe you don't - are jobs that pay mortgages and some are art and I don't care about not being paid on those.

The Tonys are also kind of like a homegrown party. You know everybody.
