Acting is trying to be absolutely truthful; to get audiences to believe that you are a dean, when, actually, not only are you not the dean, but if you walked into the building they'd probably throw you out. That's very hard.

I had never auditioned for Broadway - any play - and I was not familiar with what you're supposed to do.

I've now been doing this for ten years, and I actually got to skip a stage of going to casting directors, and now I meet with the directors, either for lunch or an audition room, and I still read sides; you're never going to get around that, but I'm not the best person to go on an audition.

I started acting when I was, like, five in monologue competitions at this private elementary school.

My musician friends could always practice what they loved doing, but I can't go on a street corner and start reciting a monologue. Acting is very collaborative, and you always need other people with you - mainly an audience.

I am auditioning again - getting back to theatre would be amazing.

I did theater for 15 years, and I spent a lot of time as an understudy.

Well I started studying to help me with these commercial auditions and I just loved it.

After I began to explore what an actor actually is, I studied for three years before I had the guts to go on an audition.

I have done a lot of theater.
