At this point the theater America is in such a precarious place.
It is so important to get respect for what you do and at the same time give it.
There is some sadness for me now about acting because it used to be that there was a reverence for actors.
Getting work in theater has always been sort of cyclical.
I talked with Brian Stokes Mitchell, who agreed with me that if you have a gift there is always stuff to do.
I believe in things that move people, if the audience isn't deeply caught up and moved to either laughter or tears then I don't think it is theater.
