I've learned a lot about the limits of what I can do, as an artist, or what I'm willing to do. It's a lot of responsibility to carry a show and to speak to people on different levels.

More quotes by Tatiana Maslany
When I was a kid, it was the attention I got from it, the immediate response from the audience, the thrill of being onstage. That's carried over into my adult life, I can't pretend I don't like the attention or whatever, but for me now, I've witnessed incredible performances that have changed the way I see the art form.
Tatiana Maslany
For me, comedy literally is way more terrifying than doing drama, so it's always about stretching what I think I can do and putting myself out there in different context.
Tatiana Maslany
Have fun, be yourself, enjoy life and stay positive.
Tatiana Maslany
We do long-form-style improv. Our focus was characters and telling a long arc story over about an hour and a half. It was closer to a one-act play than one-off sketches.
Tatiana Maslany
I've worked on shows where the lead actor doesn't know their lines, doesn't care, and it affects everybody - the crew, the director, the other actors. It's definitely a responsibility.
Tatiana Maslany
Just to be on set with Amy Poehler, who's one of my heroes, was a total dream come true.
Tatiana Maslany
My brothers and I always did improv stuff in our basement with our friends we're super nerds, and that was our way of spending a Friday night.
Tatiana Maslany
I worked with dance a lot, for each character - different ways I could move my body, different music. It's the most fun thing in the world, because I love each and every one of the characters and I'd be happy just to play one of them, but the fact that I get to play upwards of six, seven, eight or whatever, it's a total dream.
Tatiana Maslany
I'm incredibly close to my family. I have two younger brothers, they're both artists and actors and their work and the way they see the world inspires me. We've been making films together since we were kids, in our backyard.
Tatiana Maslany
I was in a Nativity play as a kid. Back then, I played the donkey.
Tatiana Maslany
I'm so inspired and stimulated by the work that it doesn't ever feel like work.
Tatiana Maslany
You learn from the actors that you're working with. I've taken a lot from all of them.
Tatiana Maslany
Those darker sides, the things that we don't want to admit about ourselves - that's what excites me.
Tatiana Maslany
I see a lot of things I'm so excited and hopeful about film and TV in Canada. There's just a huge movement, I think, in seeking an identity as Canadians, and really forging it and really embracing all the parts of us as Canadians that come from such varied experiences and such varied cultures. And I think there are strong voices that come out.
Tatiana Maslany
Trust your gut. You know yourself, so don't let somebody else tell you who you are.
Tatiana Maslany
I think the improv also helps with the imagination of dealing this person across from me who's not physically there. When you do an improv scene, you're usually working on a blank stage and creating the props and creating the environment.
Tatiana Maslany
All the foundation work you plant in the early seasons pay off in stronger storylines deep into our seasons. I think that only aids in performance.
Tatiana Maslany
I would love to work with Gena Rowlands. I just don't know in what capacity. I'd play her daughter or granddaughter, or whatever. I would just love to work with her, in whatever capacity.
Tatiana Maslany
Going back is a nice way to give definition to each of the characters because they are so vastly different. I would never want them to get blended together.
Tatiana Maslany
I'm fascinated with psychology, and with why a person walks the way they walk or why they walk into a room the way they do or why we are the way we are, and it's not exclusive to the psychology of a character.
