We've got to find a way to protect the process of making musical theater.

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

It's a terrible shame if you're born the brightest guy in your class. If you're not, then you have to hustle-and that's good.

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

The musical has always been in jeopardy - until - or was in jeopardy until it was realised that it is probably the safest living theatre art form.

I always had a good time in theatre, even when shows don't turn out as well as I'd like.

What's missing in the musical theater is producers willing to nurture new work, raise the money and put it on.
