I work just as hard and have just as much fun whether in a 50-seat house or in a 1000-seat house. It's a luxury to be in a tiny space every once in a while and a rush to be on a giant stage every once in a while.

Really, I'll go anywhere at any time to continue working in theater - it's a passion that I'm thankful I still have. It keeps me creative and on my toes and meeting great people. I can't imagine a better way of working than on a play.

Theater opened up a whole new world for me. It was a freedom I'd never known before.

My profession is about as far away from growing up in southern Illinois as you can get.

I've been directed by other actors, and being an actor doesn't make you a good director.

I'm happy whenever I'm in a rehearsal room. I've always gotten all my energy and creativity in there.

When one thing ends, you put it away and start from scratch on the next thing.
