I was swinging in my backyard while listening to Hair, and my mom called me inside. Now I'm here and listening to Caroline, or Change. I think my parents are starting to worry. I can just listen to music and swing for two hours straight, sometimes three. But I've always been like this. If it wasn't swinging, it's be walking around town. Or sitting in the car during a road trip. I have to have my ipod in and do something physically. I am so strange.
"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim
