night different audience
It's new and different every night. The charge you get from a good audience is like nothing else.
children parent asking
That's sort of like asking a parent who their favorite child is. It's very hard to determine. Sometimes I'll get feedback from somebody who liked this part of the show. Others like another part of the show.
thinking years perfect
The dove act? I'm still working on it. I don't think it's perfect yet. I got my first pair of doves when I was 14 years old. That was the beginning of the formation of that act. So it's been 24 years now that I've been working on it.
thinking clarity regal
I am very impressed by the thinking that went into The Clarity Box. David Regal is diabolical.
lines want routine
One of the funniest lines in my show was written for me by Alan Bursky. I really want to learn this routine!
people magic knows
Perform as many times as you can in front of people you don't know.
break level talent
You can tell when the talent level changes. That's where we break it down.
stars character eight
I recurred on 'Grey's Anatomy' for three years, and at the same time, I recurred for eight episodes on 'Rescue Me'. And I'd recurred for nine episodes on 'The Practice'. Frankly, the guest star is often the most compelling character.
interesting most-interesting
I have literally played the most interesting parts since I turned 40.
drama long roles
For me, hour-long drama was always the thing I felt the most comfortable doing, and I've played so many dramatic roles in the theater.
character actresses instinct
I have a tendency as an actress in general to ground my characters. Even when doing outlandish characters, that's my instinct.
growing-up important spotlight
I know from growing up in the spotlight, as it were, that the most important thing is your family.
able way actresses
I was lucky enough to be able to grow and mature in a natural way as an actress.
assets theatrical ifs
It ultimately becomes an asset to be part of a theatrical family if, indeed, you're good at what you do.
