I like the ephemeral thing about theatre, every performance is like a ghost - it's there and then it's gone.

Theater is so ephemeral, and I love that.

Theatre is the art form of the present: it exists only in the present, and then it's gone.

There's always something more to be accomplished with a character. Theater is a human experience. There's nothing shellacked or finished off about it. I guess that's why it always draws me back.

Every time I go to the theater, there's something about the atmosphere, seeing something unfold live in front of an audience, that you can't get out of your system.

I love the experience the theater creates for a community of people.

Film is fragmented and gets into lots of other people's hands. There are a lot of pleasures that theatre gives me. You get to perform uninterrupted.

I love theatre, and you learn too much as an actor and enjoy too much of it not to want to go back a lot.

What I love about the theatre is that it's always metaphorical. It's like going back to being a kid again, and we're all pretending in a room. Sometimes, when the pretending really works, I find it much, much more moving than something on film.
