powerful decision feels
The thing that makes me feel powerful is when I make a decision about something and I make it happen.
artist wonderful reviews
I find that there are few reviews that extol women as wonderful artists.
roles
I have never been interested in specific roles.
acting
Acting is very start and stop.
moving people knows
I know people like spectacle, but I'm interested in moving people.
believe needs i-believe
We all need to go to good theater; that is what I believe will save it.
believe mean stills
I mean, there are times when you aren't working, but still believe that work will come.
two tickets goes-on
Don't forget the prices are so high in theater; it isn't really where a young person can go on a date and buy two tickets and take someone out anymore.
people needs actors
People who call themselves actors and can't ever get work; they do need to get another profession.
character fire trials
In theater, the wellspring of the character comes from the doing of it, like a trial by fire, but in front of an audience.
actors stage-managers staff
The staff, stage managers, ushers all behaved as if they respected the actors.
theater time-off
I like time off because I also have a life outside of theater.
notebook song crazy
I started writing an album on flights to Africa and Brazil, but it was crazy because I left the notebook on the plane. It had seven or eight songs in it. After that, I'm not writing any more songs on notebooks - and I keep my Blackberry close!
giving-up leave-me-alone trying
You can't please everybody. I give up. I'm not trying to. I don't care. Leave me alone with that.
