It's a tough transition really for theater actors to adjust to television or film, and all of these years later, I still have a tendency to play it too big.

You know, I think I was always intrigued by theater since I was a small child.

I liked being in a smaller theater. I love doing shows of all sizes, but sometimes it's nice to be in a smaller space and to strip away some of the music so that you can be a little less than larger-than-life; you can be a little more naturalistic.

There are many, many more small theater spaces than there were when I was starting out.

Fortunately, I get asked to play - regardless of how big or small they are - some really interesting people who are part of great stories. So, as an actor, there's really nothing better.

In theatres, you're kind of disconnected. Also, it's way too big for the likes of me. Unless you're Robin Williams or someone that can fill a stage with movement and energy, it just looks like a small man on a big stage.

I did little theater things growing up.

I'm a total theater junkie - whether I'm working on a stage or sitting in a seat. I am always looking for a great play and a great part to do.

I love little theatres because it's very intimate, and you can have a very easy rapport with the audience. Everyone's in the same room.

It was always theater for me. But part of that came out of the fact that I was always acting out as a kid. I was the kid who didn't play well with others.
