By the time I was twelve, I had started my own theater company and was doing plays in the backyard and the front yard and all over the neighborhood, so, you know, I was definitely a lifer even back when I was 10.

I grew up in Georgia, and I started acting in plays when I was like eight years old, and I always memorized everyone's parts, not just my own, and I always memorized everyone's blocking. Whenever anyone wasn't there, I would always jump in. I was very hands-on.

When I was on the '70s Show,' I had that and I had 'Punk'd' and I had my own production company. That pretty much sealed up all my time.

By the time I turned 18, I moved into a little chalet of my own and felt very grown-up.

What I always loved about theater is that that's an experience that a company of actors just sinks itself into for weeks, and you really get to work on the material, and by the time you're in front of an audience, you really own it.

I was in 20 Shakespearean plays by the time I was 20.
