That creates the magic, and that's the wonderment of the musical process and how precious that is.

In the theater, it's about taking time in a musical segment, a pause in a musical way and then moving on.

When you step out and do a song in a musical, the easier thing to do is make it funny. But when those transitions become necessary, when they aren't camp, that, to me, is magic. I've done musical comedies and enjoyed them, but subject matter that's deeper and more realistic is always what's appealed to me most.

Sometimes just getting out of the house and doing something you haven't done in a long time (or never done!) can open up the doors to musical inspiration.

Doing a musical is like having a kid. It's out there alive somewhere. It's not like a movie or a TV show where what we intended is what everyone will see. The kid can act out. The kid's going to do what it wants to do.

When the audience enjoys your performance, you feel like a magician who is doing magic. It's a great feeling!

I'm a very musical person.

I'm mostly a keep-to-myself kind of guy, but you slowly find yourself getting folded into the musical tapestry.

I am in musical theatre, but it isn't necessarily what I listen to in my leisure time, do you know what I mean?

In circuses, there is a lot of magic. Things become other things.
