Actress Vanessa Hudgens says starring in Broadway show "Gigi" has been "tough" and that it can "make you feel a little crazy".
The 26-year-old actress, who found fame in the "High School Musical" movies, is currently starring as the title character in the Broadway show in her debut run on the New York stage.
"I've never worked this hard before in my life. It's a lot of work, doing the same thing over and again, it makes you feel a little crazy at times... But everyone has been so warm, so welcoming. My cast is like my family. I lean on them, I love them," Hudgens told people.com.
She was speaking at a reception after the Broadway.com Audience Awards here. She was honoured with the award for Favourite Breakthrough Performance.
Although performing in front of an audience every night is gruelling, the actress has found it one of the most rewarding experiences of her career.
She said: "But it's so much fun. Whenever I have my day off, I look forward to coming back to the stage and doing it again."
