I love stage actors. There's something special about all people who have to do a performance eight shows a week, and musical people, especially, are so much fun.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Acting on stage is still my favorite thing to do. And everyone who's been in musicals knows that there is nothing more fun.
I truly love the rehearsal process, those eight hours a day! I really love actors.
I'm not trying to take anything away from film acting, because it's also really hard, and I worship the people who are great at it. But to actually have to go out on stage night after night and do it with your audience right there is so wild and scary and exciting and fun and all the things that I remember loving about it.
It might be odd for people to hear this, but honestly, you know, when you're on stage, I don't think people realize how grueling eight shows a week is. And as far as jobs go, being a Broadway actor, it's hard. It's fun, but it's hard.
I love actors, and I love the casting process. It's funny, like, some writers don't like actors because, I think, they are the faces of the show, and so you feel sort of secondary, but I love actors because they elevate the material; they make it better.
I love the stage - the fact that you only have one take to get it right, the interaction with the audience, and how every show is different even though you're doing the same thing.
I love being onstage, whether it's dancing or acting - there's just something about being onstage.
I'm someone who started in the theater and really couldn't stand repeating the show. My favorite part of acting is the five or six weeks of rehearsal that you get. I like doing previews; I like the opening week because my friends and family come, and then after that, I don't want to do it anymore.
I love being onstage. I love the relationship with the audience. I love the letting go, the sense of discovery, the improvising.
I prefer stage work, as an actor.
