The heavy lifts.

The heavy lifts.

Well, you know, I read the script, and from the moment that it said, you know, the actor starts the show in the audience, greeting people as they come in and assigning roles, I was immediately like, wait, what is this?

There's nothing else that I've ever read that requires me to have this sort of relationship with an audience that I do.

You know, if anyone comes in with any preconceived notions of me or being sort of starstruck or whatever, I feel like that first half hour kind of breaks that down.

It shatters it.

You see me running around sweating.

You know, it takes any sort of illusion or romance out of me, I think, in a really nice way.

Yeah.

Yeah, no.

My dresser, Sandy, said to me the other day, she was like, do you want an undershirt?

And I was like, no, then I'll sweat more.

I don't mind people seeing me sweat.
