I would love to play Lee in 'True West' and Bobby in 'Company.

The thing is that I'm an actor first, and in 'Once,' I was able to be a musician and a singer as well as an actor.

I grew up in a very small, rural country town, and we didn't really have 'the arts.'

Three-quarters of my family is Irish. Of course, the "Kazee" is not.

For me, music is sort of my passion, more so than being an actor. I just never tried to make a career as a musician. It was just something that I did on my own time, just for me. I had written a lot of songs, but I don't really record a lot of music because, for me, it's the same way as a poet: I write to get things out. It's sort of cathartic.

Social media is its own sort of thing: Twitter and Facebook have changed the way everyone perceives everything.

When you think about Broadway, you think broad and big, but the fact is there are so many plays that are very intimate, but fill a 1,500-seat house. Plays like 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?' have deep moments of silence and intimacy to them.
