I think I'm a better actress for having friends and interests outside the theatre. I wouldn't want to live my life surrounded by other actors all the time.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Sure, I have a lot of friends that are actors. Just because I guess I run into a lot of actors in my work.
I honestly don't have a lot of friends that are actors. Most of my friends I've known since sixth grade and are out of the industry. It gives me a sense of reality rather than surrounding myself with a bunch of actors.
I wouldn't be the same actor if I couldn't do theater.
Being an actor is often very tedious, which is why it helps hugely if your fellow cast members are also good friends.
Most of my friends are not actors. Most people have an idea of what an actor's life is, and it's pure glamour and excitement: it's easy and free and everyone loves you. But with a certain level of fame, there's a real level of paranoia and depression that comes with what you do, that nobody talks about.
And so I've always been fascinated by the technical end of theater, and a lot of my closest friends are not actors, but in the other end of the business.
Actors ought to be larger than life. You come across quite enough ordinary, nondescript people in daily life and I don't see why you should be subjected to them on the stage too.
I've always felt like the reason I became an actor is because I look for more high drama than what I had at home.
I think I am a much better actor than I have allowed myself to be.
I'm very social. It's just most of my friends are not actors.
