Knightley Eager For More Theatre
By WENNFriday, March 5, 2010
KEIRA KNIGHTLEY has vowed to sign up for more theatre roles - despite receiving harsh criticism for her debut in West End play THE MISANTHROPE.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star was subjected to a slew of bad reviews for her role in the show, but insists she’s enjoyed her stint on-stage and now appreciates the differences between theatre and film.
She says, “I really enjoy doing stage stuff and would definitely do more theatre. It’s so different to films as you really get into the character. In films, once you have finished shooting a scene it’s done but with the theatre you’re always continuing. You get to know the characters in a way that you don’t as much in films.”
“The audience’s mood is different every night and that is fascinating as, along with my mood, it gives the whole performance a different feeling each night. There haven’t been any negative reactions from the audience though.”
