I can't do victim roles - it makes me sick.

I love period dramas and language, but I love comedy as well.

I have a background in theater. At the time I read 'The Loved Ones' script, I was playing Catherine the Great of Russia onstage. Straight after that, I played Stella in 'A Streetcar Named Desire' and Isabella in 'Measure for Measure.'

What appealed to me about 'The Loved Ones' script was that it had this really theatrical element to it. I thought that the scope of this character is so broad, and there is so much fun to be had playing a crazy teenage loner. It was a great way to explore the delusions a mind can create.

I suppose I miss the British cynicism and the humor.

The ability to workshop in stand-up comedy is incomparable to any art form, in my opinion.

I'd like to do something dramatic or a different kind of role, but I tend not to separate comedy and drama all that much.

It's really challenging to play comedy.
