Truthfully, I don't know how those special effects people do it.

I did have wonderful things to draw from, from my own experience and also just from friends and people I'd gone to school with who were very much immersed in this world right now.

All I really want to do is someday be in a western. If I could be on a horse with a rifle, I would be a really happy camper.

When I was in high school and college, my other real focus was, actually, fiction writing. So in college, I had done all these seminars with these various writers-in-residence.

Being a part of the theater community has been important to me from the time I was a child, through my parents.

The truth is that's always when it's the most fun, when you're able to just be wherever you are, be whatever scene it is you're doing, whatever the incredible actors you're with. Being busy is something that I just love and thrive on.

I had never done a 90-minute play with no intermission, so it is a bit like you get onto the train and you don't get off until it's over - and it's over very quickly, so don't miss a moment of it. That experience is very rare and specific so don't miss a minute, because there aren't very many minutes of it.
