“I've always loved theatre because it's so immediate. The challenge of it is that, career wise, it's easier to get traction in the industry if you do film and TV because the audience is larger, and because the work can be seen for a longer period of time. I did solid work in a series of regional and Off-Broadway shows, but the work I did on TV or film will have a longer life with a larger audience (and with services like Netflix). Ultimately, there's something intimate about TV, because the storytelling and the actors come home with the viewer. It can be powerful because of that.” IfsShowsHomeFilmActorsChallengesPowerfulCareersAudienceWiseTvsIndustryPeriodsEasierSeriesTheatreStorytellingIntimateComing HomeViewersBroadwayAnd OffNetflixBroadway ShowsTractionLonger Life Author:Steven C.

And it's interesting that, growing up on the circuit, it posed such a challenge, not only to me deciding what my identity was amongst my peers, but then on the music side, it was like trying to explain or convince people especially in the music industry that there was a place for what I was trying to do.
