You really, really, really have to love what you are going to do in theater because it is an unmerciful life. It's six days a week. It's eight performances a week. And that's doing the exact same thing over and over and over again.

Is a gay play a play that has sex with other plays?

I got the regular call, that they were doing a Broadway musical of Hairspray, and would I come and audition. I was familiar with the movie, because at the time it came out my lover wrote for Premiere magazine, and we had to see everything.

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.

I just want to be loved, is that so wrong?!

And I believe that you never be limited in what you do, so I like to do movies, I like to do television.

Always admit when you're wrong. You'll save thousands in therapy... and a few friendships too.
