I studied music formally. I was probably less formal about my study of acting than anything.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Music is a very big part of my preparation as an actor.
I had to study acting to basically educate myself.
Originally I studied as a musician, a classical pianist. That was my career before I took up acting in my late 20s.
Music is something I do full-time in real life. I was doing music long before I was even thinking about acting.
My style is an extension of acting and an outcome of some serious lessons I picked up learning when I did theatre in my early days.
I had no real experience studying acting; I came to it having done other things for a living for many, many years, and I have this gigantic respect for experience and technique.
I was acting before I did music, so it is an easier transition for me in my own mindset.
I didn't study acting.
I haven't actually studied acting at all.
I learned my profession onstage. I didn't have a musical background. I had no conservatory training. I don't play an instrument.
