I started out doing theater in New York. I used to go to Shakespeare in the Park a lot.

I started in theatre. I was at Cleveland and I went to London for the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth.

In the summer of 2009, I was at the Shakespeare lab at the public theater in New York.

When I started off as an actress, I did at a play at the Taper Too Theatre here in Los Angeles, called 'In The Abyss Of Coney Island.' That was more of a dramatic play. It was a small theater house. This was the first time I was literally on the road, doing a play, for four months.

My dad had a movie theater so I was there every night.

Theatre was my first love. I can't take the theatre out of me. And I wouldn't want to. To me, it's home.

A creative and artistic home is what I've been looking for in the theatre.

My mom started working at the California Shakespeare Theater in Oakland when I was two years old, so I've always grown up around theater.

I don't know, I'd love to try some theater. That's my other thing. I'd love to do some Shakespeare.

I joined the Royal Shakespeare Co. with no experience whatsoever - I'd never been to a drama school or anything. But I was strong and could lift things, I could move scenery about.
