I love Jane [Krakowski]. Jane's been a dear friend for maybe a dozen years. We've worked together on many shows and concerts and readings. We did 'Damn Yankees' together and then we did 'Xanadu.' Jane did all the workshops of 'Xanadu' before it moved to Broadway. She's hysterical and our voices blended. We had a similar sensibility.
Cheyenne JacksonMichael, from 'Six Dance Lessons...' He was somebody who had a lot of self-loathing; being a gay man who lost his family and felt ostracized. It was an interesting character to play. He was so bitter and jaded about life. Even though I'm not like that personally, everybody has a side of themselves that tends to look at the negative side of things. He was an interesting character to play.
Cheyenne JacksonPeople may have said, "The dude's gay; how are we going to market this?" But it's not an issue for me, because being out is very freeing.
Cheyenne JacksonPeople don't expect me to have a weird sense of humor, but I do. I'm very eccentric.
