We work in a business where you feel you always have to say yes because you never know when you will work again. But I found myself questioning that paranoia, which I'd grown up with ever since I started working in the theatre in my late teens.

No one I know has a job anymore. They've got gigs.
And, hey, I'm not under the illusion that everything's just going to be hunky-dory work wise forever. I've never been under that illusion. Things could go away tomorrow.
As an actor, you're never supposed to complain about being too busy because it can go the other way real fast.

The normal state of an actor is unemployed.
