I do miss sometimes being onstage, because when I do film and television, it's usually so brief and funny.

That's how I relax. I love singing with my castmates.

My parents were not at all backstage parents. We had none of that in the family. It was just very clear right away that I was an actor, even from 4 years old. I've never waited a table. I taught some - I'll teach classes in improv or Shakespeare, but there's some motor in me that needs to do that.

I was a stage actor for 20 years or so I was leading men in classical things. 'Shakespeare,' you know. And now, I never play leading men. I'm that kamikaze comic that comes from the left, turns the table over, and leaves, or the hyper-intelligent yuppie scumbag if it's a drama.

I'm a Navy brat. You find that a lot of stage actors are Army or Navy brats, because they have the ability to make a big impression, make friends, and then leave just a few months later.

Comedy has to do with holding and releasing tension it's very technical. It's more technical than drama.

People who can dance and sing are often very good at comedy.
