I’ve really turned a corner recently in terms of not taking work too seriously, so it is much easier for me to not take my work home.

As an actor, you're only one little piece of the puzzle; you're fulfilling someone else's vision. If you're involved earlier on, you're kind of creating your own.

My regular school didn't know what to do with me!

My grandmother took me to a lot of theater. I was exposed to performance quite a bit - everything from Broadway to off-Broadway and dance and music as well. I was very lucky that way. It was a very rich childhood.

I've always been fascinated with the idea of people paying for sex and what goes on with that and why that happens.

I used to struggle a lot with dwelling on how the day at work was, and I would dwell on my performance. Now, I'm like, "Well, that's over and done with, and I can't control the outcome, so move on." I just remember that it's entertainment I am making.

It's fun to stay at the Y! M! C! A!
