It took me a long time to be alright with smiling onstage.

All the satisfaction I need... comes when I step out onstage and see the people. That's awesome. I love that.

I'm really only happy when I'm on stage. I just feed off the energy of the audience. That's what I'm all about - people and laughter.

I just enjoy being onstage and relating to the audience.

People don't know what it's like standing up there onstage, when you have a wall of people smiling at you.

I love being onstage. I love the relationship with the audience. I love the letting go, the sense of discovery, the improvising.

I love being onstage, whether it's dancing or acting - there's just something about being onstage.

Onstage is the one time in my day that I can let it all out.

I'm always happy and most at home on the stage. I love film and television, but I love live performance... your immediacy with the audience, it makes all the difference in the world.

When onstage, I always try to take my audience through as many emotions as I possibly can. I want them to go from laughter to tears, be shocked and surprised and walk out the door with a renewed sense of themselves - and maybe a smile.
