It's so much more fun to do the work than to talk about it. I will have to admit that. Everybody gets to decide how they feel, and what to take away by themselves, and that's what you hope for. That people will take away different things and have different experiences from the work we do as actors. So I don't like to prescribe how to feel about the work I do.

I dress according to how I feel.

The muscles you flex in theater are muscles that you really need. I must always find a way to get back there. It's irreplaceable.

You have to allow for the impossible to be possible.

I think beauty is an expression of love.

I definitely intend to create my own work in the future so that we don't have to keep saying we don't have work for black women. But right now I don't know what's next. I hope that there are more opportunities to come my way.

I grew up in Nairobi, which is the capital of Kenya, so it's hustle and bustle, and there's always something going on.
