'Grease' was how I learned that I really liked music and musicals and movies that included music.

I grew up in a time when the only musicals were animated musicals because nobody wanted to see people to break into song.

Theater is about language, so characters have to define themselves through language for an audience.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

Jane Austen was an extraordinary woman; to actually be able to survive as a novelist in those days - unmarried - was just unheard of.

I love reading novels, and I love going to movies, but I kind of hate going to an adaptation of a novel, and it starts off with a voiceover.
