I don't think theater is dying, and musicals are a great American art form. We've got apple pie, jazz and musical theater.

What's the worst, is when people clearly haven't researched you. One time an interviewer asked me if I do a lot of plays. I'm like, yeah. Have you Googled me? There's this thing called Google, and you can ask Google that question. Then you could come to me with informed questions that didn't make me feel like I am brand new to the world.

Being in front of a live audience again. I get that in my concerts but there's nothing like being on Broadway.

My biggest influence is someone I really don't know at all: Tina Fey. Smart, funny, beautiful, self-deprecating, also a mom and a wife.

I think it's good to have an old fashioned musical as well as new musicals. There's a lot of room for different shows.

I've always wanted to go to Austria.

Some people have jobs where other people don’t clap for them. I don’t understand that.
