Anybody that goes to the theater, I think we're all misfits, so we ended up on stage or in the audience.

It's not easy being an actor, and having said that, everybody's an actor. Do you know what I mean? Paris Hilton's an actor, which is kind of scary. But if you want to honor your craft and yourself, strive for the nobler instincts.

A well-rounded performer will listen to all kinds of music. I like classical, Middle Eastern, and rock a lot.

New York seems to be thriving, which I'm grateful for. But I would hope that they would figure out how to negotiate the traffic and limit the pedicabs, because it seems to me that it's becoming a more chaotic city.

What's the difference in opening from scratch in Philly or opening from scratch in New York? The old out-of-town tryout circuit - taking the show pre-Broadway to cities like Boston, New Haven, Philadelphia, Washington - has sort of been replaced with the amount of workshops we do.

A show is exhausting when it stinks. It's exhausting when you have to work overtime to make something work.

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