“I feel like I’ve been dealing with that building over the years because of the Broadway community, so I’m treating it in the same way – I’ve always tried to keep my personal life private. I didn’t get into this business for notoriety or fame. I don’t go to places to be seen and that’s not going to change.”

I’m ready and open to meeting the person that hopefully I’ll share my life with. It takes a long time to get to that place.

What is wrong with you people?

After 9/11, the amount of applicants the FBI received increased exponentially. Whereas you used to require a college degree, and it was a small group of people who were just out of college, after 9/11, it changed.

I was a very awkward high schooler, especially in early high school. I had the middle part with a swoop, all that. It was the late ’90s!

Singing for stage, if you don’t hear yourself, that’s when you push, and that’s when you can hurt your voice sometimes. So if I can hear myself in my ear, it really helps me to find that balance of how loud I needed to be singing.

Once I came to acting, it was almost a thing where there weren’t enough hours in the day to work on stuff because I was so passionate about it.

Coming from a background of being onstage, you’re onstage for two and a half hours and you’re in it for the whole time no matter what you’re doing. Even if you don’t have a line, you have to stay in it.

I watched so many movies when I was a kid, and I’d watch them over and over.

Life doesn’t move in a linear fashion. Life makes lefts and rights, and it doubles back.

I was very unsure about what I wanted to do in high school.

I listen to all kinds of music, but I’ve always been a really big fan of Top 40 radio. If I’m in my car, that’s what I listen to.

Cats and I have an understanding, but we choose not to interact often.

I can clap with one hand.

Rent’ was my first professional job, ever.

I just feel like I have a lot to prove.

Maybe I could be Supergirl on Broadway! That would be perfect.

OK, Supergirl is number one. Maybe I could be Supergirl on Broadway That would be perfect.

But I started in theater and I’d love to be on Broadway.

I would love to do Broadway. I dont think theres anything more amazing than theater.

Obviously I love working in film and television.

What fuels me is that there are a lot of people coming to Broadway and to the show [Aladdin] for the first time.

I remember the first time I saw a Broadway show and how excited I was.

It’s every actor’s dream to work in a hit show on Broadway and also shoot a television show.
