When I was at drama school I wanted to do classical theatre. It just so happened that I did a film when I came out and I moved that way.

I love doing theater so much - being in front of an audience and seeing how a character grows and develops with every performance.

I started out doing theater when I was really young, and I completely fell in love with it. I knew that this was what I wanted to do.

Before discovering theater, I was sloughing off and didn't have any passion for school. Then I couldn't get enough. All of a sudden, I was getting good parts in all of these plays. I just loved it. I started getting A's in acting, directing and technical theater. I found something that clicked.

I've always loved musical films; I find them really thrilling and exciting; it was part of what made me want to be an actress, that feeling of being really transported.

I made theater very important in the beginning of my career.

When I first started acting, I started in opera and had a great desire to play grand, tragic characters. I got sidetracked in musical theater and ended up doing a lot of comedy.

I have such a passion for theatre.

I first decided to become an actor at school. A teacher gave us a play to do and that had a major impact. At first, I wanted to work in the theatre, but there was something about the ambience of film, especially American films, that always attracted me.

I just loved being in the theatre with all those crazy, creative people.
