“My grandmother took me to a lot of theater. I was exposed to performan...” — Julia Stiles Quote

My grandmother took me to a lot of theater. I was exposed to performance quite a bit - everything from Broadway to off-Broadway and dance and music as well. I was very lucky that way. It was a very rich childhood.

'Big Night' is the best food movie ever made. It's such a celebration of food, and the Italian tradition of celebrating people. Plus, everything looked delicious!

I so find Harold Pinter and David Mamet's writing to be exciting, and obviously there aren't that many female - at least with Mamet, there aren't that many good female roles. But I always thought it would be interesting to play one of the guy roles.

I actually have this fantasy of giving up my cell phone.

I'm always going back to New York for Broadway workshops or reading. So I always keep my foot in the door: I'm always on the lookout for the next Broadway show.

I've done a lot of Broadway plays, and I'm fortunate they've all been so successful.

Singing on Broadway terrified me more than anything I've done.

I have loved 'Les Miz' for so long. It was the first Broadway show I'd ever done.

Live theater is my favorite of all the mediums that I have worked in, so I have every intention on coming back to Broadway.
