You aren't allowed to ask at auditions, legally, a person's race.
From David Henry Hwang
Even if you're lucky to have a play on Broadway like 'Chinglish,' you don't necessarily earn enough off it to support the years it takes to get there.
With a musical, you kind of have to do a mind-meld with the book-writer, the lyricist, the composer, the director - sometimes the producer. I think that's a reason why musicals are the hardest form.
I think that plays are probably the most personal, because it's just me in charge, but sometimes it's just really - I think that there's honor in being a good artist, and there's honor in being a good 'craftsperson.'
There is something very unique in American iconography about this notion of the pursuit of happiness.
I am almost famous in China, because I have that Broadway cachet.
