I was a very outgoing, gregarious, full-of-energy kid.

I grew up sort of a geeky, tall kid, and I think I was always the one trying to make my friends laugh.

I'm used to working hard. Theater can be very grueling, and that's all I've ever known. It's what I've done for 20 years, which is crazy.

I'm not shy. I'm modest, but I'm very outgoing.

Ballet is an incredibly difficult, beautiful art form that takes a lot of training, a lot of time, and a lot of hard work.

I think everybody has something that takes them away or makes them happier. To some people it's baseball or sports or knitting or the movies.
