I've been doing this since I was 12... I don't want to act much longer; I can't do one thing my whole life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I want to act because I don't know how to do anything else.
I don't want to be totally repetitive and doing the same thing over and over again for the rest of my life. I don't want to do that at all.
That's how I learned how to act. I learned by doing it. I didn't start acting until I was 37.
I need to be doing different things all the time; it's just part of who I am.
I don't think my parents would have let me go straight into acting full time when I was 12. I do like to have balance, naturally, as an individual.
That's what I've wanted to do my whole life, just act. When I was younger, I loved to entertain people. I always used to make up dance routines, do little plays. I love to perform, basically.
I wanted to direct more than I wanted to act. And I found I couldn't do everything.
I've always wanted to act and I can't think of anything else I'd want to do, honestly.
My advice to young people who want to act is just to do it as much as you can! Find friends who also want to do it and have readings of great plays in your apartment. You don't have to wait for someone else to tell you that you can do it. You can be getting better on your own all the time.
I've always wanted to act since I was little.
