Love Quote by Sabrina Lloyd

"I am musical and I enjoy theatre, but I never wanted to just do theatre. I always wanted to go into film. I love film. I loved growing up in the theatre, but I always wanted to do film all along. But I still pursue music separately"

About this Quote

There is a polite defiance baked into this kind of career talk: gratitude without surrender. Sabrina Lloyd frames theatre as origin story and training ground, but not as a life sentence. The repetition of "always" isn’t accidental; it’s a preemptive defense against an industry that loves to typecast artists by their first medium, their first success, their first label. She’s drawing a clean line between where she came from and where she intended to go, which is a subtle way of claiming authorship over her narrative in a business that often writes it for you.

The subtext is about hierarchy and access. Theatre is described with warmth ("loved growing up"), but film is named as the desired destination, the place with reach, permanence, and a different kind of cultural power. That’s not theatre-bashing; it’s realism about the economics of visibility. Film travels. It scales. It turns an actor into a face, a brand, a recurring presence in people’s lives rather than a performance you had to be in the room to catch.

Then she tacks on the final pivot: "I still pursue music separately". Separately is the key word. It’s a boundary. She’s not presenting herself as a single “triple threat” package for consumption; she’s insisting these parts don’t have to be merged into one neat marketable identity. The intent feels less like indecision than sovereignty: I can love the stage, choose the screen, and keep my music as its own lane.
