I majored in theater. I did plays. But musicals were not my thing.
I started out doing musicals.
People go to musicals because they want to hear some really good songs.
I didn't know a single musical soundtrack, really, growing up. Nobody listened to musicals. That wasn't a thing I did.
Acting on stage is still my favorite thing to do. And everyone who's been in musicals knows that there is nothing more fun.
I love musicals and I'm happy they are coming back because I'd love to do more.
I kind of grew up on musicals, specifically, for whatever reason. They're something that really attracted me as a child.
I love musicals. I grew up on musicals.
My father is a South African actor who danced in broadway musicals for 'Lion King.'
I've been reading scripts where they've been doing a lot of singing now, but within the dark, realistic story line. I would love, love, love, love to do that. But not a musical on Broadway, I don't have that kind of energy or stamina.
I grew up doing musicals. I've done so many musicals in my life, I kind of got them out of my system. But, I certainly would be open to them. Rocky Horror Show is a big favorite of mine.
I was at a school in England, a prep school, from the ages of 8 and 13. And every play they did was a musical. Parents love musicals. And I don't sing. It was driving me crazy. 'We're doing 'Macbeth.' 'Yes!' 'The musical!' And I was always in the chorus, because of course, in all the main parts, you had to be able to sing.
My best memories growing up are of putting on musicals with my mom and dad, Both of them are real hams; it was like vaudeville in East Hampton.
Musicals are to the theater what wines are to a substantial dinner.
I like musicals and I love music.
You know, sound was still a fairly new thing when I came into movies. And the reason musicals happened is because of sound. They could put music in the picture! That's how it all began.
I'm not really a 'puppet' person in particular; I think they are very theatrical, and I've found different uses for them in shows, but my true interest is in writing Broadway musicals.
When I was a kid, I grew up watching musicals.
When I was young and growing up in New York, my parents took me to children's theater quite often - elaborate presentations of 'Goldilocks' and 'Rapunzel' for Upper East Side kids. As I grew older, they took me to adult theater, mostly musicals.
All I listened to until age 18 growing up was musical theater. I liked the escapism of it.
I will be singing primarily all the songs from the musicals that I have been in from over the years.
I did a lot of stage plays and musicals, and my first proper acting job was on 'Holby City' when I was 15.
I'm a devotee of Stephen Sondheim. I think he's a genius.
I really like musicals - 'The Music Man,' 'Oklahoma!,' 'Li'l Abner,' 'Annie Get Your Gun.'
I started in theatre. I went to the Boston Conservatory and majored in musical theater.
