I never expected to go to Juilliard. When they came recruiting in Miami, I auditioned. I got a scholarship.

At Juilliard, I couldn't afford to have fun. I went to school and stayed home.

I almost never go to the theatre without seeing someone I've taught or known at Juilliard.

Juilliard is wonderful in that they don't pick just one way of working. They give you a palette. There is method acting. There is a lot of attention to Shakespeare and verse.

Juilliard definitely emphasizes the theater. They don't train - at all really - for film acting. It's mostly process-oriented, pretty much for the stage.

I applied to a few conservatories. I was sure that I wouldn't get in, and I didn't plan to go to N.Y. But then I got into Juilliard.

I came to Vegas because I wanted to, not because I thought it could help my career. I didn't even know they had comedy clubs here.

During my childhood, I played just about every sport imaginable, which became less feasible at Juilliard... Although I remember our annual dodge-ball game as a highlight. The Juilliard 'Fighting Penguins' are a force to be reckoned with.

I don't think anyone in my family was funny.

I knew I wanted to be an artist early on, but I decided to seriously pursue the profession when I auditioned for Juilliard.
