The first drama thing I really got stuck into was 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.' I played Puck. That's when I said, 'I want to be an actor.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I got into drama school, that's when I knew that I could safely say that I wanted to be a professional actor.
My introduction to acting was through theatre, so I actually saw a couple of Broadway shows that made me want to be an actor.
When I decided that I might want to do acting for a living - I don't know where it really came from, since there was no school play or any of that - my mom gave me her blessing. I had to get a scholarship - that was the only way I could have gone to drama school.
I'm an actor. I want to do drama.
When I first started acting, I started in opera and had a great desire to play grand, tragic characters. I got sidetracked in musical theater and ended up doing a lot of comedy.
I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus.
I first wanted to be an actress after seeing a play - not a movie.
It was in high school that I first became interested in acting. We put on lots of plays.
Even though momentarily I thought about being a doctor, I was always involved in theatre and did a drama degree. I just didn't have the guts to go, 'Yes, I'm going to be an actor,' until I was probably 21.
I never really wanted to be an actor. And that was the beginning of it, I began to write things down and eventually became a writer on a television show.
