I'm not going to lie: I miss the grass and the trees... I miss home. On a Sunday morning, you could chill on the deck and listen to people mowing their lawns. It was very serene.
I'm from Bourbon, Missouri, where spirits are high and where the cattle population exceeds the human population.
I hone my craft. I keep going. I light a little fire under myself. I look around for roles that will challenge me. And I'm grateful for all the ones I get.
When you rehearse a Broadway show, you get two months of rehearsal, while in TV, it's a much shorter process.
I try to pride myself on being nice to everyone and not letting egos get in the way.
I transferred schools in high school, so I've been the new girl on the block.
Love me some Tom Kitt; he's awesome in every way.
I grew up playing sports, and being athletic was just something I have always hung on to.
You never know what will happen. But that's the life of an actress. And it's exciting.
I had trouble in high school, and it has really pushed me to do something big and make a difference.
My high school experience - and I think a lot of people feel this way - was complicated and intense, and I learned a lot about female relationships during that time.
There is power in having a friend group because you have this bond that helps you navigate girl world, and it creates safety and self-esteem. But if you speak up to the leader, you risk that social isolation or not having a group and feeling really left out.
I was definitely a part of a clique, and we all had our friend groups, but I tried really hard to branch out and be friends with a lot of people.
I'm sure I tried being mean at one point, and I don't think it worked. It's too much work.
I fall more on the insecure side of things.
'Peter Pan' is tried and true - it's a story that everybody knows.
I was so young in 'Bring It On!' I didn't know what I didn't know.
It may seem like I've gone from one show to the next, but it's been a roller coaster. I've had my share of lows.
I remember thinking, 'If I can make Tina Fey laugh, I can die happy.'
When I was in 'Kinky Boots,' nobody really cared what shape I was in, and so I remember, like, fans would send me cookies to the theater, and I would be like, 'Okay, I guess I'll have another cookie!'
