Going to the theater is such a joyous experience. My dad would take my sister and me to plays when we were very young, like six or seven years old.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My parents are not theatrical people, but my dad took me to the theater.
I was just blown away by everything my dad was doing, every play. It was amazing to be able to go as a young person to the theater and see these visuals and how creative it could be. More than anything it was realizing you could do that as a life path.
My parents were involved in community theater in New Jersey. Instead of hiring a baby sitter, they would take me with them. So my love of acting seeped in from watching my parents and seeing them having fun.
I went to a lot of theatre. My parents were very involved with the performing arts. I went to nightclub shows when I was a little girl. We went to Florida and we would go to the Cocoanut Grove down there. We'd go see Lena Horne, Jimmy Durante, Sophie Tucker and Judy Garland.
My grandmother took me to a lot of theater. I was exposed to performance quite a bit - everything from Broadway to off-Broadway and dance and music as well. I was very lucky that way. It was a very rich childhood.
I used to go with my parents and loved it, I was in school plays, and I started reading plays before I started reading novels. I'll defend it to the hilt. When theatre is good it is fabulous.
My dad had a movie theater so I was there every night.
I've always loved musical theater. It's a bit of a family tradition.
My two brothers and I grew up in the theater, going everywhere with my parents when they performed.
The first time my mum and dad went to the theatre was at my drama school in third year.
