kind subtle feels
It's a really subtle kind of thing. It makes me feel like Randy Harrison is not a human being to them.
character annoyed clubs
The whole character of Justin and the club life he lives - I have no experience with it. It's really foreign to me, which is annoying, but that's just how it is.
attention want down-and
I don't want to be the center of attention. My posture has changed. I walk with my head down and shoulders slumped. Suddenly I carry myself as if I'm ashamed of something.
character feelings isolation
I could definitely empathize with the character, with the feelings of helplessness - if only the desperation and the feeling of isolation.
jobs blue cities
In the theater we're like blue-collar workers: It's a physical job, you don't make a lot of money, and you're on the road all the time. It's worth it in that it's the best job in the world, but you have to negotiate living in cities that don't always accommodate you.
gay dating guy
I wasn't dating anyone. I was hyper-focused on acting. So I didn't bring a guy to the prom. I was the lone gay person as far as I knew.
character thinking giving
I think the sense of community that exists with all the characters - that's the answer. The fact that they have found a family in their friends. It does give some depth and meaning to their lives.
people connections fleeting
I wonder what kind of lives they will have built for themselves when they turn 45 and can't really have any connection with people because they are so used to fleeting sexual.
erotic stopping done
I've done sexual stuff before - onstage, which is even more emotionally difficult. With a TV crew around, you are stopping and starting; it becomes really technical. It's not erotic at all.
yankees shame born
I was always the shame of the family - the one Yankee who was actually born in the North.
bullying kind hiding
By the time I came out, that kind of stopped it. The bullying stopped when I claimed myself and proved that I wasn't afraid. A lot of it was when I was hiding when I was younger.
powerful storytelling music-is
Storytelling with music is a really powerful device.
