I look for people who're passionate, dedicated to the text, and in whom I trust completely.

With a theatre audience there's always the additional sense of a sustained challenge of which I'm acutely aware and for which you need to have the tools ready - your voice, physicality, brain.

On the stage, you alone hold the key, and on the night you have to trust that the director has inspired you enough to take the material and run with it.

I've been through some very difficult stages in my life, but I wouldn't change anything.

It helped me when I decided that we're on this planet to learn to live together and get along.

I had the conviction that lovemaking fools you. The overpowering emotions it induces make you think you're sharing the same feelings as the other person and that they're imagining the same as you.

I want to come across as a positive person.
