I think people are gravitating towards these period dramas because I think they're looking for a simpler time.

For so much of my career I've been trying to find little things and make something out of it.

I'm just a stage actor from Chicago.

I wrote a script and I've been whispering in director's ears for a really long time and I'd love to direct.

I have been drumming my whole life.

As an actor you want to explore something you haven't done.

Unless an entire row of people got up in the middle of a performance and left the theater in disgust, I felt as though I hadn't done my job.
