I love festivals because they seem like more of an artsy, supportive attitude - which benefits a more theatrical performer sometimes with having theater and other non-club venues, as well as the audience being filled with other artists. It's nice to be with other comics, as usually at other road gigs, I'm solo for the most part.
All of the young people - the artsy people, people who get overlooked because they're weird or they don't have hype around them - need to get some shine.
Everyone has their thing, and I was the weird, artsy kid.
I'm not good at anything except writing jokes. I wasn't good at sports, I wasn't good at anything artsy, ever. I think there was a real worry for a while about what I would be good at. I was just this chubby little Indian kid who looked like a nerd.
Jackson [Rathbone] is the most artsy, creative and, I think, the most talented.
If you're the creative, artsy one who goes off to study painting or filmmaking, you're often seen as an outsider partly because traditionally, it has never been seen as a way to have a career.
