stories ensemble scene
Well, it's more of a sane life to be part of an ensemble! I find that the work can be more specific too and I have to really make sure I know where I am in the story because I'm not in every scene.
want wanted
While I very much wanted to be in a relationship, I didn't want to be in the wrong one.
actors want life-is
As actors we always say that once the person in a scene gets what they want, the scene is over. It's resolved. But life is never resolved - you're always in the process.
father thinking keys
Some people think my father was a spy, because of working for that government agency in Vietnam, but he can't find his car keys, much less keep a national secret.
doe television shock
The thing I don't like on television is when somebody does something that makes absolutely no sense just for the shock of it.
want gains stories
You want the story to end when it's supposed to and not be squeezed for somebody's financial gain.
jeans want
Personally, all I ever want to be wearing are jeans.
break doughnut pledge
I take the no-doughnut pledge, and then I break it.
important looks
I would like to be part of a family, however that looks. Family is really important to me.
mother school play
My mother had lived in London since I was little, so she never got to see my school plays and stuff.
long people bigs
I've dated people who I thought were going to be a big deal in my life, and I've also spent long periods by myself.
friendly made shows
I've made out more this season on a family-friendly show than ever in my actual life.
character mean men
Over and over in the play my character says, "I'm thirty-two years old," as if that should explain everything that's wrong in her life. I don't know what it's like to be thirty-two, but I can imagine. I imagine she means she's stuck in an in-between time, she's at an age that isn't a milestone but more of a no-man's-land, an age where she's feeling like her hopes are fading.
successful differences vision
Once again, I've been thwarted by the massive difference between my vision of the successful me and the me I'm currently stuck with.
