I grew up in a sport that didn't allow you to grow up. There was always the threat of younger competition. So you had to maintain the image of youth.

Seeing the show is like a visit to the fountain of youth for parents and the children.

I will jump into most any role.

An athlete learns how to hold her breath, but that doesn't work in singing. You have to learn to relax.

It's that athlete's obsessiveness - the need to prove yourself and work harder than anybody else. I think it's what helped me do well in the theater.

There's no disgrace in failure, the disgrace is not to try.
