hilarious honest obsessed truly writer
I am truly obsessed with Lena Dunham. I find everything about her unique and refreshing. She is a brilliant, hilarious and honest writer who is not afraid to make her audience uncomfortable.
desk until
To be honest, I didn't even know what the Drama Desk Awards were until I was nominated.
across blows farther gets happened line might paved sort stuff terms
Sometimes I feel like 'Avenue Q' or even 'Book of Mormon' might not have happened without 'Urinetown.' 'Urinetown' sort of paved the way, just in terms of what Broadway would accept in its houses. It just blows my mind, the stuff 'Book of Mormon' gets away with. It's way farther across the line than 'Urinetown' ever was.
people respect run strangely surround tried
I surround myself with people I admire and respect. I have never tried to make anything happen. I don't know how long 'Urinetown' will run on Broadway, and I find myself strangely unconcerned about it.
love
Seriously, I love the Olympics so much it hurts.
best prancing
Nothing like a bit of 'The Best of Times' before prancing around on stage.
central hours manhattan mighty park rocks scaling seem spend sword
I don't seem to take vacations, but I must say, a jaunt into Central Park can be mighty transporting. My boy and I can spend hours in the Ramble scaling rocks and sword fighting with sticks. I often forget I'm in Manhattan when I'm in there.
hope
I choose to live without hope to protect myself from disappointment. It's very effective!
came defying east ended great lower people perform supported
In my mid-twenties, I said to myself: 'I can't perform anymore!' I didn't know what I wanted to do. I didn't perform for a while, then ended up doing a one-woman show about Gilda Radner having cancer. It was called 'Gilda Defying Gravity,' and I did it on the Lower East Side. It was great; people really came out and supported me.
I never thought of myself as a Broadway actress. I'm not really a singer or a dancer.
chance
If I weren't performing, there is a real chance that I would be a 'One Man, Two Guvnors' groupie. I think that production is masterful in every way.
