One of the goals I've set myself is to make eye contact with everyone in the audience at least once. You can't stop in any one position for too long, and just that physicality, that need for that, it's so all-inclusive.

You don't really audition for Hamlet; Hamlet is one of those roles that a director or producer decides you should do it.

All good writers across the board, if they're dealing with real tragedy, they will give you comedy in it. And if they're dealing with real comedy, there will be tragic moments in it.

I think Hamlet is a very funny play - Hamlet is riddled with wit.

To work around and be successful in a round configuration in the theater, you have to connect with everyone.

I'm going to be criticized by lots of "scholars," but I think Shakespeare's best comedy often appears in his tragedies, actually. Not necessarily in his comedies.

I loved sports, so acting died and it was all sport. But I always used to get in trouble, because after lights out I would sneak out to watch things on TV.
