“I'm one of those pathetic actors who will say yes to every play reading just because I do miss the stage so much. What I really miss about the theater is that in the end, it's yours to give. In television and film, it's yours to do and someone else's to take and someone else's to give. As much as I love television - the biggest luxury of all is to know that you have a job to go to - I do miss that connection and having that power over my own performance on stage.” KnowsGivingEndsPlayJobsFilmReadingActorsMy OwnStageMissingTelevisionConnectionsPerformancesTheaterLuxuryPathetic Author:Julianna Margulies

“I've studied theater since high school. Of course, it's a different story altogether being on Broadway, but it's still theater, and you have to be in front of a live audience, and that's very exciting.

“Well, I don't know anything about television. I'd never done it before. Initially, it was quite daunting to take on so much challenge and so much time with it. I think it is a great outlet for an actress because you really have 13 hours to bring a character to life, which is so much more than with film, and you have the luxury of time to tell a story and to really color a character.” ThinkingKnowsWellsDoneCharacterStoriesFilmHoursChallengesTelevisionColorActressesLuxuryOutlets Author:Diane Kruger
