I'd love to play Puck in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.'

With any kind of artistic thing, it's a muscle, like any athlete, and the moment you're not doing it, you lose all confidence. That's why I'm terrible with down time.

I don't know where my romanticism comes from. My mom and dad would read to me a lot. 'Treasure Island,' 'Robinson Crusoe,' tales of chivalry and knights, things like that. Those are the stories I loved growing up.

What I learned is that acting is to a large extent about trying to stave off self-doubt long enough to be natural and real onstage.

The Master and Margarita is my favorite. To me it’s the greatest exploration of the human imagination.

I meet hundreds of people, and I'm not going to remember them. But every single one of them will remember their interaction with me.

Part of an actor's job is to find correlations between your own life and the life of the person you are playing.
