Television is great but for me, as a performer, nothing compares to a live theatre show.

I love musical theatre because I love doing a live performance eight times a week.

Live theatre provides a rush you can't get in film or television. But it is the TV and film work that offers the leisure to go off and do a play.

That's why I love doing live theater more than anything: You get an immediate reaction, whether it's good or bad.

Playing live is closer to theatre, although when you're up there on your own, it's quite scary and revealing because you're playing your own songs. It's like a one man show that you've written yourself.

I still feel I belong to the theatre. There is nothing more challenging and exciting for an actor than performing before a live audience. The stage is the real testing ground for an actor.

It's all good fun - television and movies and so on - but the good thing in theatre is there's nothing and no one between you and the audience so you can do what you want really.

I'm a live performer and I love playing live.

Yes, yes, theater in general is just going to always be my first love, performing for a live audience.
