Live theater is just an incredibly powerful medium, and I think anyone who goes, whether they know about it or not, if they see something that sort of fits with them, it's kind of hard to deny that they had a good time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
That's why I love doing live theater more than anything: You get an immediate reaction, whether it's good or bad.
Live theatre provides a rush you can't get in film or television. But it is the TV and film work that offers the leisure to go off and do a play.
I enjoy theatre tremendously, and there's nothing like a live performance.
So I've done my fair share of theater. I have also been very fortunate in that I've been able to come to New York two or three times a year just to see as many shows as possible. I think the live theater culture here is incredible.
What I always loved about theater is that that's an experience that a company of actors just sinks itself into for weeks, and you really get to work on the material, and by the time you're in front of an audience, you really own it.
Live theater is my favorite of all the mediums that I have worked in, so I have every intention on coming back to Broadway.
I have spent my whole life working in the theater, and most of the people I know have done the same. And we are pretty interesting people.
Theatre, when it is at its best, takes a lot of beating - the live experience and the shared collective experience of live storytelling is really special when it is good. Particularly here in New York because the audiences are amazing, very vocal and very engaged, and that makes theatre very exciting.
Yes, yes, theater in general is just going to always be my first love, performing for a live audience.
The hard thing is getting people to come to the theater to see something, no matter if it's good or not.
