I'm so lucky to have a career in my fifties. And to still have the desire to do it. I don't think about retirement.

In my life and career I want to embrace ageing because I think that's what's interesting.

I think the wonderful thing about doing theater is that it's more of an actor's medium. I think that film is more of a director's medium. You can't edit something out on stage. It's there.
