I've been operated on 13 times.

I make lists to keep my anxiety level down. If I write down 15 things to be done, I lose that vague, nagging sense that there are an overwhelming number of things to be done, all of which are on the brink of being forgotten.

I have a whole slew of doctors. I can count eight in my phone right now - eight different doctors, all for different parts of my body. I have specialists.

I'm usually working on eight or 10 things at once.

I'm a terrible grocery shopper. I hardly ever do it. And if I do, there's never more than three things in the bag.

I can be unbearable sometimes asking for so many takes.

We are always rushing to an appointment or trying to meet a deadline.

I have little routines in the theater. Once I've established something, like the order of putting on makeup and a costume, I have to invariably do it in the same order every time, even if I only did it by chance the first time round.

Initially we performed in halls with capacities of 1,000.
