When you dance intensely, you are really aware of your physicality, and that's always great to have as a tool, when you're an actress.

Any time you get a role that's a young person, that resembles what it's like to be a teenager, I always kind of jump at it.

I was a bit of a loner as a teenager. I never went to a single social event, because they terrified me.

I used to love ballet and I did it really, really intensely. But it came so much about achieving physical perfection, which when I was 14 was a big deal.

As an actor you have to wait for someone to cast you, so you're relying on the business.

I hate the feeling when I'm overseas, away from Australia, that I'm trapped, blocked by an ocean from getting to the people I love. That gives me anxiety.

To have a creative outlet that you can control is really important because you do a lot of waiting to be cast, then waiting to go into production, and then waiting on set.
