Once you find the right idea, then go ahead and embellish it.

I always liked the Van Gogh story because I was terribly involved in that.

I've worked with an awful lot of people. Katy Hepburn, Spencer Tracy.

I had given up the theater and everything propelled me into entertainment. And I didn't resist it.

But I think musicals are going to have to deal with important subjects.

Dali was the great painter then and surrealism was a way of life.

It's always the story that interests me.
