I never really considered acting as a career until I moved to New York.
I think I had a shyness about me, I think I discovered acting as a way to break out of that and as a way of belonging, a sense of being special.
There are no secrets in life; just hidden truths that lie beneath the surface.
So it's really nice after about a year and a half to get back on stage and flex those old muscles.
For me, it was more a dramatic shift to go from the stage to the screen.
I certainly know there are people in positions of power in the business who lack imagination and, perhaps as a result of that, think of me as 'David'. But I wouldn't really want to work with those people, you know?
