The theater is a tough place. It's not cushioned the way it is in film and television.

All my career, I've said this: Critics and producers think audiences want actors that only present the silhouette and hit the points in the silhouette. What I do is too dangerous.

I just love chickens.

My favorite composers are the ones that tell the story. I love Wagner. I love Mahler. Prokofiev. The programmatic music. I listen more to classic rock because I don't like the contemporary music very much.

I think that Stevie Nicks is one of the greats. Steve Nicks and Grace Slick and Janis Joplin have the real rock voices, to me.

Smile at a stranger. See what happens.

I am in musical theatre, but it isn't necessarily what I listen to in my leisure time, do you know what I mean?
