Quotes

“I was taught to be like a tree. My mum used this metaphor to teach me that no matter how rough the winds get and how awfully your branches could crack and flail, your roots must always remain strong. They’ll keep you planted in the ground and in touch with what’s real. So, it doesn’t matter where I am in the world but as long as I feel connected to my “roots,” I always feel at home.”

“I usually am at my best when faced with challenges. I never want things to be easy, otherwise I’ll get bored. Even though it was really difficult, I was so stimulated and happy being surrounded by new places and people, seeking new ideas every day.”

“Wherever you thrive, feel energized and at your very best is where you should be. It will improve the work and I find you end up attracting the right projects and people into your life that way. There’s a synergy to how these things come together.”

“I’m excited to be directing my first feature. It’s like a modern Bonnie and Clyde with all the laughs. I’ve also written a dark comedy series about a scammer girl living in a Reno airport. I love the light that springs out of the darkest subject matters.”

“I left Australia when I was eighteen to go to theatre school in New York and it was hilarious – I was so naive about what that process would look like. […] I had a very rude awakening when I arrived and realised New York was a lot harder than I thought.”

“Everything you worry about seems to become so much less important when you’re surrounded by nature, at least that’s how I am. I love to hike and I love to just be around trees. [laughs] The ocean soothes me, and my dog loves it, too.”

“You have to sell yourself in America in a completely different way, I’ve found that transition very strange and rather unnatural for me.”

“I was so shy as a kid, almost to the point that I was mute, so when I started acting at around fourteen my family was really shocked.”

“I got into theatre when I was fourteen and it completely changed my life because it taught me how to express myself. Had I not started theatre at that age, I don’t know how things would have been for me, it could’ve been very different.”

“I think it’s great to do theatre regardless of what you want to do when you grow up [as it teaches you] how to relate to people.”

“I like to always be challenged. I don’t want to receive a project and think, “This is going to be easy, I know exactly what to do.” A project ignites me when I read it and think, “I wonder how I would do this.” 

“I’ve certainly learned things on every project I’ve done, there is always a kernel of truth that is dispensed in some way.”

“I’ve always wanted to write and direct. When I started doing theatre at fourteen we would write our own plays and we’d do things like Shakespeare festivals, all this nerdy stuff but it made me excited about life.”

“It gives you more of an understanding of the story you’re telling and why you’re telling it. The motivation for each action you’re taking as a character becomes so much clearer when you look at it from a writer’s point of view.”

“There is so much more of a responsibility when you’re playing a fictional character, in a weird way there can be less freedom because you’re constrained by their specific mannerisms and the way they would conduct themselves…”

Natasha Bassett is a woman of many aspirations and it is always good to know that she can use her aspirations to entertain us through her projects.
