I did all sorts of jobs after drama school - working in a bar, as a teaching assistant. I probably learned as much from them as I did at drama school.

I went to uni and then drama school afterwards and lived in quite a few student houses.

Right after I left drama school, I had a job.

I was a drama major through college.

When I came out of drama school, I was in a shared house in Sydney.

I did a lot of acting at school and university, then I went to drama school. It was quite a normal route.

I went to drama school and, after that, went to Paris to train at a place called Ecole Philippe Gaulier. When I came home, I realised I'd have to have a serious stab at it. I didn't have an agent and didn't have the traditional drama school showcase, so I started a comedy group with a couple of friends.

I do readings at the public library. I just did a benefit scene night for my old acting teacher.

Professionally, I was at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and did lots of things there, and then I won the BBC Carlton Hobbs Award, so I did some BBC Radio drama work, which is a lovely way to start out because you work with lots of great people, and you're working all the time, so you're learning rather than sitting around and waitressing.

When I left school I went to Australia for a year and worked in the drama department of a school in Perth.
