I think theater is powerful. The best experiences I had in the theater are more powerful than the best experiences I had in movies.
I love the theater community and theater life, and would love to figure out the distinctive differences between Broadway and the West End.
Manchester Youth theater, then the National Student Theater Company, and later, my degree course, all helped form my love of telling stories and directing.
My happiest times in the theater are when I do ensemble pieces. I really got into theater because of that closeness.
My older sister has all her degrees in theater, and I couldn't stand the theater geeks!
I feel like I prefer movies, but, at the same time, theater is so exciting when you're doing it. It's a harder job doing theater.
