And yes, you’ve been through the tragedy, but it’s ultimately hope that I think you’re left with Picture Quote #1

Fifteen years before I became a screen actor, I was in the theatre. A lot of my work was comedy, which I loved doing. It’s harder Picture Quote #1

I am grateful to theatre for making me what I am today. But it’s not like theatre is my first love. I am equally attached to cinema, which is, actually, a child of theatre, since it borrows heavily from it Picture Quote #1

Theatre was my first love. I can’t take the theatre out of me. And I wouldn’t want to. To me, it’s home Picture Quote #1

My parents lived, breathed, ate and slept theatre. Emotions were right on the surface. Growing up, the unreal had as much importance as the real Picture Quote #1

I love theatre because that is my foundation. So, if I had to make a choice in terms of where I get the most fulfillments, it would be theatre. The reaction is so immediate, unlike with TV and film Picture Quote #1
