[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 273038, member: 23"] As an actress, I'd say it was stage where she proved her chops over and above other media. Her run in the off-Broadway version of [I]Extremities[/I] really opened peoples' eyes and minds, I think. Even in the UK I remember reading in the papers how it was earning her rave reviews and surprising people with the strength of her performance. It must have been gruelling to play that role night after night.
