dancer sports
I've always been physical. I loved sports growing up. I was never specifically a dancer or anything like that.
theater wife
I live in Philadelphia, and my wife and I do a lot of theater out in the Philadelphia community.
fell funniest love seen time
I had seen 'Avenue Q' off-Broadway back in 2003 and fell in love with it. I just thought it was the smartest, funniest thing I'd seen in a long time.
annoying customers dreamed musical recipes turn wise wrote
I never dreamed that the little ditties I wrote about annoying customers or bagel recipes would turn into a full-length musical comedy. But a very wise person told me to 'write what you know'. So I did.
cameras happening hard insanity mouth muppet people piano playing underneath
If you think hard enough about it, Rowlf the dog playing the piano on 'The Muppet Show' - what kind of insanity was happening underneath the cameras to make that happen? His mouth is moving, and he's got two hands playing the piano. That's two people under there!
admired performers realized stopped until work
I didn't start to work until I realized what it was I had to offer. I stopped imitating performers I admired and started just being myself.
good love stuff
I love to strive to be good at stuff that's really hard.
certainly enjoy specific training
I certainly enjoy doing pantomime-y things, but I didn't have any specific training in it.
education english musical teaching theater
I double majored in English education and theater with a musical theater minor. Teaching is the only thing that makes me as happy as performing.
coming comparing hit performance smash talking
The nice thing about 'Honeymoon in Vegas' is we're not talking about some crazy smash hit where everyone is coming and comparing my performance to Nicholas Cage.
form
I think theater communities in cities can form really strong foundations.
itself lends
I was a bit of a goofball. I was always silly. I think that lends itself to being an actor.
chaplin charlie
I'm not Charlie Chaplin and will never, ever claim to be. But when I become the 'Tramp,' I can feel the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
people
I think it's ridiculous when people say, 'I don't date actors.' It's about the right person, and no matter what that right person does for a profession, they're still going to be the right person.
