As a student studying acting, I was always broke, so going to see any live theater was almost impossible.

For my part, I like live theater best when it's taut, concentrated and intimate.

Live theater to me is much more free than the movies or television.

The energy of live theater is indescribable. You are just in the moment for an hour and a half.

I mean, theater acting for me is the true form. It's the real place where you learn, the place where you practice, the place where you can take risks and try things out, and I think what film acting is when you've perfected what you're doing and it's a polished piece of work, then you do it on film.

I wish the stage were as narrow as the wire of a tighrope dancer so that no incompetent would dare step upon it.
