I started on the stage when I was 13 and I consider the stage my home.

The stage is my love, it's where I started and where I do my best work.

I like working on stage because there's something very immediate about it, that interaction with an audience where you immediately hear their reaction, or feel them, whether they're with you.

I'm most comfortable on stage.

The stage is where I feel most comfortable, and I miss it all the time.

I love to play; a stage is a safe place for me to be. It's not that way for most folks, but I'd be lost without it.

I've got to be comfortable when I'm on stage.

To me, the stage is like my living room, or my home, and when you come over to my house, I have to be a hostess and invite you in so that we can have a great time.

I feel a lot more comfortable on stage in the theatre. It just reminds me of being a kid and doing pantomimes.

It took me years to actually get comfortable on the stage. I prefer the intimacy of screen; it comes easier to me. In theater, you have to be louder and bigger - that was harder for many years in my teens. But now I've conquered that. I eat up the stage. I love it.
