I feel lucky to receive such critical attention and praise when you're in a show that's going to last a month, it's just easier when audiences are more receptive. I've done two new shows this year, so I'm always excited to work on something a little older, traditional and structured.

I was a vegetarian for a really long time, from 7 to 23, so I feel like some things aren't that weird but they seem weird to me, like blood sausage or snails. Those are things I've eaten now that, years ago, it would have been totally improbable that I would have eaten.

On a personal level, just for me in my own work, I would say the most interesting thing has been getting to work with the people that I've worked with.

When we do something we're not proud of, a lot of people don't want to look at that, people may say what people don't know won't hurt them.

I think from my earliest childhood, I liked to tell stories, put on plays and write things. It's funny to think of it as an artistic bug because I didn't necessarily want to be an artist. It's just who I was and how I communicate.
