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.

You want to feel like people are hiring you because they want to work with you, not because of who your parents are.

The focus of our family life was homework and what was for dinner; getting to ballet rehearsal and getting my brother to soccer.

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.

To get to go from stage to set and back, it keeps you feeling very present, and I think that's always such a wonderful thing in your work because you don't really have time to be as neurotic as I might become.

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

I will say that I've been lucky enough never to have to do a job I didn't want to do, or a play I wasn't in love with.
