L.A. is always great. There's something special about L.A. And New York, for me, because it's home. There's nothing quite like walking onstage at Madison Square Garden.

All this thing that L.A. doesn't have any love for the theater isn't true.

I feel like L.A. is more of a showcase, and Chicago is a pure comedy scene where you're doing comedy for comedy. You're doing comedy actually for the audience that's there.

I think a lot of people just assumed I came to L.A. to do more television and get into show business.

I find L.A. kind of romantic, actually. As a movie junkie, it's a city that was built by the movies. There's something really weird and surreal about it that I find energizing.

I like L.A., but I think what's changed is that the kinds of films I do, the mid-range dramatic film, has become an endangered species.

There's such a work ethic involved in theatre that you can't learn in L.A.

There's so much nonsense tossed around about L.A. and how horrible it is and 'don't go out there' and all that stuff. So I went out to L.A. and I was pleasantly surprised.

L.A. is so big that if you don't actually live in Hollywood, you might as well be from a different planet.

There isn't really a theatre culture in L.A., which is odd when there are so many brilliant actors there.
