Despite the successes, you remember the failures - rather lovingly.

I wouldn't want to be just pigeonholed as an extravagant director.

I saw 'On The Town' about nine times. I discovered it. I loved it. I was in college.

Nothing is staged exactly as it was, because I can't remember - and I consider that an advantage.

Audiences are quite happy to be astonished, and they don't care who does that astonishing.

I don't think there's a defined contemporary American musical, do you?

A star may guarantee business, but the tradeoff is a very short run.
