I'm conflicted with theater in the city because you want to reach a diverse audience, and that audience doesn't typically go to the theater.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All I know is that as an audience member, I am less and less inclined to go to the theater. But that has to do with content and also because the venues seem to be actively trying to repel people.
I would love to do theater. But I am very picky when choosing theater. I just won't do anything.
Also, if you want to reach people, theatre is not always the best way to do it.
Theater is a way to keep challenging myself.
I seem to be constantly confronted by theater professionals who are more or less annoyed by the prospect of structure.
In terms of theater, there's not a more supportive theater community than in New York. It's really kind of a real thrill to go there. I mean, don't forget, I'm a boy from the suburbs of Sydney, so getting to New York is a huge, huge thrill.
It really is individual for everyone, but for me, theater is where I learn and grow, and that is always a good thing.
Theater has given me a different perspective on the way I approach films.
I've always wanted to do theater in Chicago. Chicago is a big theater town-and, in some ways, I think this city is savvier and smarter than New York. Sometimes, I think it's a little too chic to go to theater in New York these days.
My pride at being a member of the theater community is deep, and we have a chance to reach a lot of people who might feel like there's a place for them. I want theater to be part of the cultural conversation and be on par with all mediums of television in its ability to be relevant.
