One of the things I find very difficult about theatre is the repetition - that something can slide away from your original intentions.

Theater is a way to keep challenging myself.

I feel like I prefer movies, but, at the same time, theater is so exciting when you're doing it. It's a harder job doing theater.

The thing about theatre is that when it is actually occurring, when you have the audience on your side, you absolutely think you can will them to do anything. It's exhilarating.

The repetition of the theatre means you've got the time to get deeply inside the person you're playing.

Theater has always been much more fun. You get a laugh, and it's really encouraging.

Theater is exciting because it is collaborative, but it is also exhausting for the same reason.

The theater is so endlessly fascinating because it's so accidental. It's so much like life.

I love theater work because of the immediate effect your performance has on the audience. And I love the repetition; I love getting on the same stage for more than a month and reciting the same lines, trying to make a small or large step towards an improvement in my acting.

The big difference between TV and theater is that you get to do a new play every week, so it's quite challenging, but it keeps you fresh. There's never any fear of getting stale in your performance.
