The reason I act is because I'm trying to understand why people are as they are.

My dad is such a good man, hard-working.

I think when you're an actor and you're drawing on your emotions all the time, you need to be quite steady.

Literally, I don't know where life is gonna go from one day to the next, and that's as exciting as it is tiring.

I love actresses who are brave and don't do what's expected of them or don't play off how they look or take risks.

I'm a theater actress. I love rehearsal. I could have six weeks of rehearsal and think it's not enough. But on film, you don't get that luxury.

Theatre is where my heart is. It's where I can do my best work. And even if I do films and TV, that's what I want to come back to.
