When I'm onstage, I'm acting.

When I'm acting, I'm in a different place, singing is the last thing on my mind, and when I'm on stage, there's no acting at all involved, not even presentation, it's just who I am.

Acting has always been very comfortable for me, so it allows me to pay attention to other parts of the process literally while I'm acting.

I just always found it easier to be the same guy onstage as you are offstage.

Who I am on stage is very, very different to who I am in real life.

What I learned is that acting is to a large extent about trying to stave off self-doubt long enough to be natural and real onstage.

I think you always learn something in every character you play onstage, either personally or creatively.

I have never been a different person onstage than I am off.

With acting, I always feel conscious of what I'm doing.

Sometimes you forget where the heck you are but when you get on stage, you know by the look on the people's faces and the accent in their voices where you might be.
