Almost all the shows I've been connected with have been extremely well cast. They're playing the show, not just doing the songs.

Nowadays, there are sometimes more producers than there are people in the cast, because it takes that much money to put a show on.

White. A blank page or canvas. The challenge. Bring order to the whole Through design, composition, tension, balance, light, and harmony.

I've always preferred actors who sing to singers who act in all the shows I've done.

The situation's fraught, Fraughter than I thought, With horrible, impossible possibilities!

I don't like the word 'career'. When somebody says to me, 'oh, you've had such a wonderful career', I think, 'career - that's after you're dead.' I just don't think that way.
