I really prefer the actual experience of being onstage and living the character from beginning to end with the energy of the audience. There's nothing that beats that feeling, and yet I really have trouble with the eight shows a week.

I think I'm a character actress in a leading lady's body, but the industry doesn't really see me that way.

There's a lot of Kenya that's not like me. I like Birkenstocks, granola, my dog Pops.

Being strong can be also feminine. I don't think feminine equals being weak. Being strong is very sexy.

Everybody is different. I can think of three black men I've dated and they couldn't be more different from each other.

When you have a play, you have to be on every night.

I feel like people grow the most when they step outside of the box that they are used to. For me, it's constantly challenging myself to step outside of my comfort zone. As soon as you do that, then you grow, but then you get comfortable again.
