Petruchio is a very clever guy and clearly has a lot of bravado and confidence. My feeling is that he's broke at the beginning of the play and needs a dowry to save face back home.

Usually, you see this play as a guy who can't make up his mind, but our version is more of a revenge thriller than a man who is pontificating what he should do next. I've never seen a 'Hamlet' this big, this exciting, with this many cast members; it's quite a spectacle.

My dad's a very shrewd, clever guy.

He needs to play it safe and come home and do the things you need to do. He wants to win by a substantial margin.

I do theater as much as possible, but it's very difficult to manage for me.

There's a lot of pressure being an actor and taking on challenges that people don't expect of you.
