The Way People Love Sci-fi Is How

Auditions Are Not A Natural Environment, And You Feel Judged, Even Though Everyone Is Just Excited To Find The Right Person.

I Started Out As A Dancer As A Kid; I've Been Dancing Since I Was 4. So Performing Was Always Part Of What I Was. I Don't Know If It I Enjoyed The Response I Got From People Or If I Liked Having An Audience, But There's Something In Me That Wanted To Perform.

As A Kid, I Wanted To Be A Boy Because I Equated That With Strength. There's A Problem With That. It's Only Growing Into My Own Womanhood That I Realize How Warped That Is That I Was Attributing Strength To Male Qualities.

Sometimes I'll Go Into A Shop And Speak In A Different Accent To See If I Can Pull It Off. But Then Somebody Will Be Like, 'where Did You Say You Were From Again?' And Then I Panic, And My Accent Dissolves, And I Pretend Like I Wasn't Doing It In The First Place.

It's The Reason We Go To Films And Watch Television: To Escape The Mundane Nature Of Life And See Another World And See Ourselves In That Other World. I Think That's What Sci-fi Does So Well.
