Nobody has yet proven that taking a chance and doing something unique that an audience isn't used to is a bad idea. What the theater lacks is that kind of courage.

We've got to find a way to protect the process of making musical theater.

I'm not from a theatrical background where people do like to work it out on some stage space.

Musical theatre is something I'm familiar with, I've been doing that.

There is already huge public interest in stage musicals.

I would love to do a play, but I don't know about musical theatre. I've never done anything like that.

There's been talk of YES possibly doing something on Broadway in New York. People have approached me with that idea, and there are discussions about that.

I got successful awfully quick, and I wanted it... But I do think there is responsibility to move the musical theater form forward. I think you always have to be aware of the work that came before and build on that.

I think theater ought to be theatrical.

Musical theatre is now a worldwide conversation.
