I Was Married Very Young.

Shakespeare Is Like Mother's Milk To Me.

I Always Tell That To Young People - Go To College, Do Theater, Work With An Audience. Don't Try To Learn How To Act In Front Of Millions And Millions Of People. Don't Make That Your First Ambition, To Be On A Sitcom Or Get Into The Movies. Learn Who You Are As An Actor, And The Best Way To Do That Is To Do It In Front Of An Audience.

I Grew Up In A Theater Family. My Father Was A Regional Theater Classical Repertory Producer. He Created Shakespeare Festivals. He Produced All Of Shakespeare's Plays, Mostly In Shakespeare Festivals In Ohio. One Of Them, The Great Lakes Theater Festival In Cleveland, Is Still Going. So I Grew Up Not Wanting To Be An Actor, Not Wanting To Go Into The Family Business.

There's Nothing Like Spending An Evening With An Audience Every Night.

For Me, Working On Stage Is Much More Exhausting Than All The Other Mediums, But It's Also Much More Thrilling.
