"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

Les Miz

But, technically, it was Quilters. It was the first musical I was in (Me, being one of three men in the show). My obsession started with that, as I tried to write a screenplay to it (I was 14). Shortly aftre, I was introduced to Les Miz, then Starlight Express, then Phantom.

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

My first Broadway show was Bring in da Noise, Bring in da Funk. But the show that really got me into theater and Broadway as a whole was Rent.
