I think I'll always be a theater gypsy at heart.

I'm the type of person who feels I have to prove myself first.

And not to mean that I think I'm some special person, but I think we're all here for a very specific reason and once you figure out what that is then you're on the right track and we're all on the ride together.

And I think right now I'm just enjoying finding something such as One Weekend a Month where I can really resonate with this woman's history and her situation.

But on the other hand, I think as an actor, you tend to want to look at the darker parts of your psyche.

When Xena finished I just really wanted to work with Shakespeare's material.

It's very hard to become an actor in film and television, you have to have such perseverance and you have to really believe that if you have any sort of talent at all, you will find work one day.
