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

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 didn't go into the theater to be a producer, I went into the theater to be a director.

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

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

I've never been able to understand where great artists come from.

When I was a producer, the fun of the show was waking up with a hit and enjoying the period after the show opens. The fun of a director stops the day it opens. No matter if it's a success or a failure, it's not a whole lot of fun anymore.
