When you know you have 1,000 people sitting on the edge of their seats in silence because of a shift that just happened on stage, there is no better feeling.
The greatest sound in the theater is silence.
It's the kind of democratization of the Internet that has led to the breaking down of barriers into the creative arts.
I think that there is no doubt that every experience you have in your life, whether it's playing a character or something else, you bring that to the work.
I love producing, I love bringing things together.
It's the way I feel about acting. That we are given clues by a writer about someone's essence or persona and it's our job to try to figure out which of those clues are true, which of clues we decide to follow and which of those clues we think are red herrings, or only in the way another character thinks of that character.
We have to start listening to nature now.
Clean, sustainable energy is crucial and cannot wait.
Nature's message is clear: we can't keep doing what we're doing now.
There's something really incredible about watching what someone else does with a role that we know.
There's something very interesting about the way each individual actor approaches stuff.
Sometimes you walk away from playing somebody and you think, "Wow that was far as from my own experience as I can possibly be." And sometimes you walk away thinking, "Wow. There are qualities in that character that I didn't realize I had." And those can be both interesting and uncomfortable.
I write a lot about my experiences and the people I meet. Ive got a lot of material. But a book about me? It seems sort of odd.
I was not a studious kid, and I struggled to find things that would command my attention and engage my ideas and energies.
