Honestly, I wish I loved something else. I've tried so hard to want other things. I left school after two years to come here, my fourth manager just dropped me, and my last audition was for a teen soap pitched as Dangerous Minds meets The O.C.. Should've been a lawyer.
Cause the world needs more lawyers.
Well it doesn't need more actresses.
You're not just an actress.
What do you mean, "just an actress"?
You said it yourself, you're a child-prodigy playwright.
That is not what I said.
You're too modest to say it but it's true. So you could write your own roles. Write something that's as interesting as you are.
Last thing I wrote was a stand-up routine for an open-mic night. It was horrible.
All I'm saying is Louis Armstrong could have played the marching-band charts he was given. What did he do instead?
I don’t know. What did he do.
Well, He made history, didn’t he?
OK, I'll stop auditioning and make history instead.
