You can't plan everything - if I did a performance exactly how I rehearsed it, it would be so boring.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I go onstage and I talk, and I remember what I'm saying, and I track it.
I don't like a lot of rehearsing.
One of the hardest things about directing is just to be patient and remind yourself that you've been in Week 1 of a rehearsal process yourself, and you know what it feels like.
When I perform on stage, you have to remember my performance or buy another ticket to the party! In television and film, you can see it over and over again.
I don't rehearse a lot. I try to keep it organic. Even in movies, the less I rehearse, the better I am.
