I've been wanting to do a play for years.
When I got the appetite for more and more theatre, all I could think of was trying to get back to New York.
I always, always meant to be on stage. I only ended up even auditioning for television and movies because I was understudying a Turgenev play on Broadway and was so broke that, when I got a mini-series, I had to take it and was so ashamed because I was such a snob.
I didn't aspire to be on Broadway.
My daughter's favorite musical is 'Wicked,' which she has seen hundreds of times - she even worked as an usher at the Pantages so she could see it over and over. Her dream is to play Elphaba.
I would love to play a nun. I used to want to be one when I was a kid.
I saw a concert with Nena singing '99 Red Balloons' on TV and I said, 'I will also go onstage and sing.'
I wanted to be a Broadway star.
I wanted to be an actor since I was nine years old.
I'd love to do Broadway. It's funny. I love it, but I've never actually seen an actual Broadway show, not even 'Hairspray.'
I can't remember a time when I didn't want to be on stage.
I wanted to be an actor since I was just nine-years-old.
Going to America is the best prize, so fingers crossed it will work out on Broadway.
'Hamlet' is obviously a role a lot of actors want to portray or be involved with in some way and that I'd like to be involved in.
When I'm older, I'd like to play one of Tennessee Williams's women and an older Adelaide in 'Guys and Dolls.'
The thing that fuels me the most is the desire to be on stage. And singing is the ultimate way of expressing all the emotions that I have inside.
I remember dreaming about it, about being on TV. I remember seeing Children of a Lesser God on Broadway. I was sitting in the second or third row, and I was just so blown away, and I walked out saying, ‘That’s what I want to do.’
