"Winning a Tony this year is like winning Best Attendance in third grade: no one will care but the winner and their mom."

"I have also met him in person, and I find him to be quite funny actually. Arrogant and often misinformed, but still funny."

Godspell and You're a Good Man Charlie Brown-- the first two shows I performed in
"Inside every actor there is a Tiger, a Pig, an Ass, and a Nightingale. You never know which one is going to show up."
-John Michael Higgins in FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
My favourite musical would have to be Follies, but my most beloved is Gypsy.
I haven't had the kind of life changing experience with Follies as I did with Gypsy. The Encores! production of that truly defined what theatre is to me and why I have to be involved in this world.
Theatre is a safe place to do the unsafe things that need to be done.
-John Patrick Shanley
This is like asking someone to pick their favorite child. I've got so many favorites......for so many different reasons. And, I'm sure everyone feels that way.
Beauty and the Beast - My first Broadway show when I was five Into the Woods - My parents taped the broadcast when I was three and I watched it over and over and over . . .
I go through stages, but the one I never get sick of is Les Mis

Of All Time: Beauty & the Beast-It's not a perfect show, but it still holds a terribly special place in my heart.
Classic: 1776 & Gypsy-They're both musicals which not only struck other special places in my heart, but made me want to see it every single day of my week long vacation.
Only from a Cast Album: Titanic-Such a wonderful score
One I may Never See: Merlin-Such an interesting idea, reminding me of the musicals I used to write as a little kid, plus it just fascinates me.
One I've been in: Seussical-On Broadway, it was a great flop, but performed by anyone else, it's just pure magic.
