When I played the Sahara Hotel in Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve, I got to bring Wiley, my 85-pound black lab. He’s responsible for my favorite New Year’s memory of all: At the end of the show, he ran onstage and then out across all the tables in the showroom, sending champagne glasses and gamblers flying.
I got into acting because nothing else worked. I have done literally everything. I have sold magazines door-to-door. I’ve worked on an assembly line in a factory, a restaurant, the desk at a hotel. I’ve worked in statistical typing, taught school. You name it, I tried it, and nothing worked.

Soho House is normally a private-members club, but the Berlin one has a hotel open to the public. Many beautiful rooms in a cool location, and who knows who you’ll run into in the lobby!
