My advice has always been to study the craft of acting if you want to be an actor. There are many great schools that teach acting. NYU being one of them.

If you want to see theater you go to New York.

I'd like to widen my education. I'd definitely like to widen my film range. I mean, I'd love to do some theater.

Theater is very much the world I'd like to get back to, particularly in New York, both as an actor and director.

I always wanted to have a career that would keep me at home in New York so I can work in the theater all the time and be involved in the creative process from the ground up.

My college degree was in theater. But the real reason, if I have any success in that milieu, so to speak, is because I spent a lot of years directing, I spent a lot of years behind the camera.

At the University of Maryland, my first year I started off planning to major in art because I was interested in theatre design, stage design or television design.

When it came time to go to university, I wanted to study cinema studies and theater and not necessarily do a fine arts degree.

New York is a great place to be fed in the arts. The arts in general are a large part of my life. The city was my postgraduate course.

That's why I ended up going to Lancaster University, because they had a visual arts course, and in the first year it was like a broad visual arts course in sculpture, painting, graphics - all of that.
