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

I played the tuba in high school. I wanted to be a member of the marching band. I thought, what can I play that has the most effect? What can I play to get people to laugh?

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.

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.

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?

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