I had been in a Shakespeare company for three years and done a lot of Shakespeare. That was fun. That was interesting.

I was a musical theater major at the University of Arizona. And I primarily trained with Marsha Bagwell. It was a classical program, so we did Chekov and Moliere and a lot of Shakespeare.

I actually did Shakespeare when I was at North Carolina School of the Arts. I studied with Gerald Freedman and Mary Irwin - it was fun; I enjoyed it.

A lot of my training is in classical theatre; I've done a lot of classical plays in New York and also at the Guthrie and here and there across the country.

My father used to act in high school. He was in a production of 'Othello;' I don't know who he played, but it wasn't Othello. He would talk about it, though, and read Shakespeare to me.

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

The highlight of my undergraduate years was a year-long Shakespeare course I took with Edward Tayler.

I did do some Shakespeare on film, it's really difficult. It's really interesting, because I was doing a series in Canada called 'Slings and Arrows' and it was about a company based around the Stratford Festival.

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