I've always found it not only easy, but enjoyable. It's necessary for us to reach out and I'm speaking for myself here. I certainly have a sense of responsibility to reach out to these people in the theatre who might look to someone like me for some guidance.
I've always loved the idea of changing myself, wearing costumes and disguises. It takes you back to being a kid, to dressing up.
I'm so into playing different characters, even when I was on Nickelodeon. I just observe.
