I love kids; I think they are fun and funny.

If I could get the respect of 14-year-olds, I'm happy. They're the toughest audience.

I've grown up with my audience; they're my age or older. Not a lot of kids are coming to see me.

I do love children, but I don't really talk about that in auditions.

I've been really lucky when it comes to casting kids, and I don't particularly like child actors. Too often, they just show up, and they've had whatever real innocence that's in a child just beaten out of them. They start to perform for you, and you can just see it coming. It's no good.

Luckily for me, I genuinely like my audience. They really are a good bunch.

I love kids.

I love performing in front of an audience and seeing smiles on the kids' faces.

I have found that children are the most open-minded of all my audiences. They are not set in their ways. They are open to ideas.
