I love being on stage. I'm completely totally relaxed. It's the only time in my life when I know where I am and what's coming next. The other Robert Powell is probably fairly melancholic. Let's just say happiness isn't my default position. There are dark parts. I'm very good at it. I frighten people sometimes.
When humor can be made to alternate with melancholy one has a success but when the same things are funny and melancholic at the same time it's just wonderful.
Often the roles I'm offered in England are melancholic women who are filled with regret for the past regret for their fading beauty.
My marriage? Up to now everything's okay. But it's a real marriage - imperfect and very difficult. It's all about people evolving somewhat simultaneously through their lives. I think we've emotionally evolved.
