Drama is basically what I do, so it's a compliment that people think it's hard for me to get back to drama.
Drama is hate. Drama is pushing your pain onto others. Drama is destruction. Some take pleasure in creating drama while others make excuses to stay stuck in drama. I choose not to step into a web of drama that I can't get out of.
People think comedians don't do drama. Comics are drama. And what is drama, as opposed to comedy? It's all the same to me.
Drama drama drama. The public wants it, so let them get the whole ugly mess. Why not?
I think when people talk about lighter drama, they tend to use that term, not derogatorily, but 'lighter' means sort of less to a degree, but if you're an actor, light drama is often mistaken for easier drama.
I love gritty drama. I'm passionate about films and drama that make you think - hard-hitting, gravelly characters.
I never wanted to do just comedy or just drama; sometimes, going back and forth you can get yourself in trouble which happened to me on other things so you're always trying for a delicate balance - I also think that they compliment each other so well.
My parents couldn't afford a full time drama school, but I basically just did every class I could do, and followed every drama interest I could. When I was 15 or 16 I did drama courses.
I think with drama, at least for me, my process, there's a lot of thought. I do a lot of back story. I listen to a lot of music. I'm very committed to a process when it comes to drama, but with comedy, I think it's really about letting loose.
I have done much more dramatic work than comedic work, but I think comedy is harder than drama in a way. I think it's one of those things that's constantly discussed - people who do comedy think it's harder, people who do drama think it's harder. Usually drama is the one that gets this highbrow respect.
I think plays have nothing to do with one's own personal life. Not in my experience, anyway. The stuff of drama has to do, not with your subject matter, anyway, but with how you treat it. Drama includes pain, loss, regret - that's what drama is about!
I tend to think in dramatic terms. In life, there may be an actual drama, but it would be the fictionalized, imagined drama that engaged me.
I literally grew up in drama. I used to watch drama - the catharsis of the play - then see drama at home.
I made mistakes in drama. I thought drama was when actors cried. But drama is when the audience cries.
Humor is important for is pacing. If your whole book is just drama drama drama, it's going to wear down the reader.
Drama read to oneself is never drama at its best, and is not even drama as it should be.
