Onstage, I Was Never The Ingenue.

I Spent 10 Years In New York Doing Theater.

Royal Young Has Accomplished A Rare Feat In His Fresh And Riveting Debut: He Manages To Recount His Fascinating Youth And Unconventional Family With A Mixture Of Humor, Scathing Honesty And Tenderness.

I Literally Felt Like A Freak, Which Is Another Aspect Of The Role Of Sally That I Relate To: Total Outsider.

I Don't Consider Myself A Goody-goody, But I Like To Be Perceived As Classy.

It Was Only When I Moved To New York That I Realized Tall Is Good.
