Acting... honestly, I'm so uncomfortable and so awkward that I could never think about setting foot in a theater room or acting class.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Being an actress, I find myself people-watching and I can be quite shy.
Acting is something I always wanted to do and knew I could do.
I got into acting to get my foot in the door for film-making.
I love theatre. It's far more satisfying than film. Sometimes there's a collective sigh from the audience, or it's so quiet you can hear a pin drop. I couldn't believe how easy acting was when there's an audience; after a few previews I almost couldn't do it without one.
Acting is something I love.
For me, acting was something I fell into.
I took up drama and did so much extracurricular work, like the National Youth Theatre and Guildhall's Saturday school. Acting is where I felt most comfortable and how I wanted to express myself.
Directing is a whole series of things that would be awkward socially. But I love that. I love actors. Talking with them, touching, laughing, crying.
What I love about acting is that you are exposed to so many different things. Horse-riding, sailing, travelling to amazing places.
I grew up seeing a lot of theatre, and it was theatre that really seduced me into acting - not film or television.
