I did a lot of community theatre and met a manager that worked out of Philadelphia, and she started sending me up to New York for auditions, and I got the part in a play at Manhattan Theatre Club when I was 15.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I started working in New York City as an actor and did many plays. I did regional theater, smaller theaters, children's theater.
I started acting when I was 13 in New York. Worked there for a couple years, then auditioned for a show there that was going to be filming here. Ended up coming out, getting the job and just staying.
I was involved with my theater program in high school, and I was involved in a festival where I could audition for a lot of different schools.
When I was 13 years old, a professional theater company in my town needed a kid actor. I auditioned, and I got the part, so for just a few weeks I became a member of the company and I met some professional actors.
I did children's theater when I was younger, and then when I was about 14 I started doing theater in New York City.
When I was 18, I joined the Screen Actors Guild, and after college I came to New York.
When I was a young woman, before I moved to New York, working in small, non-Equity theatres in the Midwest, I did a lot of musicals in my early to mid-20s.
I did a lot of theater growing up, and in college I was in the musical 'Chicago.'
I grew up in Manhattan and, since my father was a playwright, all I ever wanted to be was a stage actress.
I pretty much got into theatre to do community theatre and things, but then I went to Williamstown and found an agent. I then went to New York and did a lot of theatre there, so I started doing only theatre.
