For some reason, comedy just comes easily to me, and I feel like I can do it. I don’t have any doubt. When I work on drama, there’s always a sense of ‘Did I find this person’s truth at the bottom of this?’ And it’s hard to tell sometimes Picture Quote #1

The percentage of people that go to drama college in the U.K. is probably just like anywhere in the world. It’s a very hard business to work in.

Professionally, I was at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and did lots of things there, and then I won the BBC Carlton Hobbs Award, so I did some BBC Radio drama work, which is a lovely way to start out because you work with lots of great people, and you’re working all the time, so you’re learning rather than sitting around and waitressing Picture Quote #1

I try to measure the amount of truth in a work rather than just looking at the generic distinction between comedy and drama Picture Quote #1

In junior high, I was picked on for being the small skinny kid who enjoyed being in drama. All the drama kids, we were looked at like we were aliens, and people would call us names and say, you know, ‘It’s stupid to be in drama.’ They would say a lot worse things, to be honest Picture Quote #1
