I've never had to deal with ageism - so far - in my career; I have been able to navigate my career and getting older and the roles and opportunities that have come to me.

Coming from the theatre I have played some fabulous characters where I get to wear gowns and I get to be a princess or someone from the 1920s, or I get to wear showgirl costumes. I'm used to wearing a wardrobe that changes how I feel.

I grew up sort of a geeky, tall kid, and I think I was always the one trying to make my friends laugh.

I love to teach, I love to draw, I love animals. So I don't feel like I am relying on one thing to lead me in my career.

I don't think of myself as a dancer. I think of myself as a singer-actress who moves really well.

When I look at my longterm goals for the rest of my life, there are so many things other than performing that make me happy.

I am okay that has changed and I have some more wrinkles and my body is changing.
