It’s funny, there are so many women who are former executives and have taken all that stress and anxiety and transferred it onto their kids.

I'm not much of a famous-person friend. I've hung out with Brooke Shields and I don't think I've ever seen that kind of pure face recognition, but I keep a low profile.

I like playing the same person over and over again. I've done shows for over a year on Broadway, and I never get bored.

Be tenacious. Get as much stage time as possible.

I actually like character work, so for me, generally speaking, I enjoy it. It's a little bit more of a comfortable suit you put back on. You can explore it and have fun with it and push the limits of it.

You know, once somebody knows you can sing Elphaba, it's like being able to sing Evita - people shut up about it already.

I'm so bad at spontaneous impressions.
