Prior to being in 'Carousel,' I had only seen the movie. So, when I read the script, I felt like it was a lot deeper than the movie portrayed it to be.
The themes in 'Violet' are universal: accepting yourself with all of your flaws, moving on, and the forgiveness and freedom that comes along with that.
I feel such a connection to 'Violet.'
We all have something in our past that is gripping us, and 'Violet' is very much about leaving those things behind.

History can just be so unkind as time passes.
