I'm extraordinarily honored and proud when I am told that I am part of the Broadway community and part of the Broadway family. Because, Broadway is a family. And it doesn't matter if you did one show or if you did fifty shows.

The eyebrow pencil and false eyelashes were essential; my mother didn't feel dressed without them.

There are some family traditions I don't want my children to carry on.

Living in continual chaos is exhausting, frightening. The catch is that it's also very addictive.

I was born in a blender.

I really don't look at my past and I really don't look too much to the future because I find that's sort of redundant. I really live right in the present. I live right in the now.

People come up to me as I leave the stage after a performance and tell me tey saw my mother onstage with me every time I sing. I keep a sense of humor about it.
