After about 15 minutes, you feel that you're winning them over.

I never like the way I look. I don't. I never look at myself.

You can feel whether an audience is tightened up and pulled back. Of course the opposite is an audience like we've been having in LA, which is fabulous.

You take a plug and put it in a socket, and that's what the theatre is-it lights up right away. You speak, and they respond immediately.

I really never felt any tremendous aggravation or separation.

I'm not comfortable with just me, me, me. That's boring.

I have always loved a challenge.
