I always assumed I'd spend my life happily performing in artsy-fartsy little theaters.
I'm a real theatre kid - that's all I ever wanted to be.
I'm a total theater junkie - whether I'm working on a stage or sitting in a seat. I am always looking for a great play and a great part to do.
So many people have told me that 'Wicked' is their first musical ever and that they're hooked for life. I'm like, 'Wow, you really got it right when you picked this show to be your first one.'
Trust me, there's not one night a week I'm not in a theater somewhere. I adore theater, and I go out with friends, so I do have some nights off.
I want people to be obsessed with Broadway and theatre as much as I am.
I pretty much have no life outside of the theatre. I go home every night, and I put the TV on, and I veg out and order food.
If you're in rock 'n' roll, you're not supposed to admit to liking theatre stuff, but I'm a big theatregoer.
My daughter's favorite musical is 'Wicked,' which she has seen hundreds of times - she even worked as an usher at the Pantages so she could see it over and over. Her dream is to play Elphaba.
Oh, I am such a nerd when it comes to music - I only listen to Broadway!
I have rarely met a musical I haven't liked.
It's almost scary how amateur I am when it comes to musicals - I'm a musical goer, but I am not as obsessed with musicals as perhaps some of my theatrical friends are.
I remember seeing 'Chicago' and 'Legally Blonde' and waiting by the stage door.
I miss Broadway! I'm still a theatre kid, don't worry!
I've done a bunch of Broadway, so I'm a theater nerd when I come to New York.
I was mad about the theatre growing up, really mad. We had a local theatre, the Torch, and I used to usher there. I would see the shows over and over again.
I don't love the theatre. I'm just not one of them.
I'd love to do Broadway. It's funny. I love it, but I've never actually seen an actual Broadway show, not even 'Hairspray.'
My mom is an avid musical theatergoer. My dad would always get a subscription to the Syracuse Stage. I was always exposed to theater. So I went to a theater conservatory at Boston University.
I did musicals in high school, certainly. And then I just kept wanting to do them. I felt at home in the theater, in that way that, you know, you're supposed to if that's the kind of person you are.
Musicals are my favorite. I'm a musical theater buff.
As a gold-card-carrying member of the nerd herd, I'm usually in the artsy, fringy, PBS-y kind of shows that change maybe five people's lives forever while leaving everyone else wondering if they can still make the ticket lottery at 'Wicked.'
You can't tell the story of a 13-year-old boy who knows every lyric to 'Phantom of the Opera' without also referencing how much teasing he gets at school.
I have a camp fascination with all things musical theatre - I've even got the box set of 'Britannia High.'
I'm a musical theater aficionado, a.k.a. loser.
