My taste is very eclectic. I love musicals, but I also love the classics. I've seen some fantastic productions. I was in a musical for 600 performances in Australia that I first saw in New York.

I was an adventurer, and I got married a few times. I kept trying to find a relationship as good as my parents'.

One of the things you learn at drama school is not to play the result, but just to play the moment.

Most Australians who've got an ear can do an American accent because we grow up listening to them on television and in movies.

I haven't really had a major role in film for about 12 years. But I never stopped working in the theater. I do stuff back to back.

I love when I am not typecast. I've been acting for 50 years. I was such a baby face; I was playing children until I was in my 30s, which frustrated me enormously. Now that I am 65 and getting to play women in their 50s, I am getting paid back for having to play children for so long.

Sexism is alive and well! We were saying this forty years ago. I'm an optimist, so I like to think we've progressed in some ways - in Australia, we get equal pay.
