I think I realized it was an art form at the beginning, but it took me a really long time before I was able to view what I was performing myself as an art form. ↗

I know I had my equivalents in Adrian Lester and Lenny James when I was at drama school. I remember David Harewood doing 'Othello' at the National, and Adrian Lester having done Cheek by Jowl's famous 'As You Like It and Company' at the Donmar. Not necessarily performances I saw, but just the fact they happened was massively encouraging. ↗

I need to show the world that my final goal is to perform huge concerts like Madonna. ↗

Madonna remains the most visible performer on the planet, as well as one of the wealthiest, but would anyone seriously say that artistic self-development is her primary motivating principle? She is too busy with Kabbalah, fashion merchandising, adoption melodramas, the gym, and ill-starred horseback riding to study art. ↗

Music never dies. Do we really need another Madonna tour? Does she have to compete with women performers 25 years her junior? ↗

It is not a dreamlike state, but the somehow insulated state, that a great musician achieves in a great performance. He's aware of where he is and what he's doing, but his mind is on the playing of the instrument with an internal sense of rightness. ↗

In the theater, you go from point A to point Z, building your performance as the evening progresses. You have to relinquish that control on a film. ↗

The adrenaline of a live performance is unlike anything in film or theater. I can see why it's so addictive. ↗
