Because I wanted to have a place that I could create everything that I that I never had as a child. So, you see rides. You see animals. There's a movie theater.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Because I could take this as an opportunity to create something that I pretty much guarantee nobody else was going to create in film.
The theater is where I belonged; I simply wanted to be an actress my whole life.
My parents wanted me to grow up around horses and open spaces.
I always wanted to be part of a movie that creates a different world.
Choosing to be in the theatre was a way to put my roots down somewhere with other people. It was a way to choose a new family.
I've played a ghost, cat, snake. I've been funny, sad. I've been filmed flying on screen. So why not spend time on something else? I don't need to accept everything I'm offered.
Growing up, I didn't have a lot of toys, and personal entertainment depended on individual ingenuity and imagination - think up a story and go live it for an afternoon.
I wanted to be in the theater. It is simply the way I felt.
Growing up, it was about finding a way to entertain myself outdoors. We spent all the summers on the beach, camping with my family a bunch, and traveling as much as we could. My parents wouldn't let me watch too much TV growing up or play video games, or anything like that.
When I was a little girl, I loved theater a lot and I was always playing and making my own worlds.
