Nicklaus at the 86 Masters. At his age, with his game at the time.

What fuels me is that there are a lot of people coming to Broadway and to the show [Aladdin] for the first time. Lots of kids and lots of adults and it's usually the kids were it's a special moment for them.

I remember the first time I saw a Broadway show and how excited I was. That really fuels me and for some, it's the first time they have seen Aladdin.

You can check that box off. You want to make your parents proud for the tuition they paid at NYU.

I always loved Alan Menken songs and wanted my first album to be a tribute to him and his work. I always loved his music.

We all work together to pump each other up. Before the show [Aladdin], we give each other a pound on the back, like a sports team.

Alan Menken took me to his studio and we went through his trunks of songs and put together an album of stuff that people and stuff that people don't know. I'm very proud with the way it came out. I had no idea what it would be like to do an album and that process was grueling and tedious but it was very rewarding. I would do it again if I had the chance.
