And people are intrigued if I really am as grumpy in real life. People feel a bit let down if I'm laughing or smiling.

Who I am on stage is very, very different to who I am in real life.

The real reason your pro tells you to keep your head down is so you can't see him laughing at you.

When I want to show the kind of meanness people are capable of, to make it believable I find I have to tone it down. It's in real life that people are over the top.
