There are so many wonderful classic roles, but I also would be really interested in developing something brand new. I think my heart would probably be in developing something brand new; I think that sounds really exciting.

Late night writing is also good, too, but in New York, you've got neighbors. I try to be a good neighbor.

I used to sing songs from musicals all the time as a kid.

My proudest moment of my career was opening night in Cambridge and watching the cast take their curtain call. No one was looking at me, and I was floating off the ground. It was just euphoric.

If I get frustrated, the first thing I'll do is get up from the piano - completely mindlessly - and walk over to the cupboard and pull out something salty to eat.

I like seeing someone that can sing jazz and then flip over and sing a pop song and then sing a rock song.

The most powerful place you can come from is just having a really deep knowing of who you are and what you want for yourself.
