Zitat des Tages von Donna McKechnie:
Thank God for YouTube. Every Thanksgiving, I'm bombarded with 'Turkey Lurkey Time.'
It takes a lifetime of devotion to build your craft, your confidence, and the ability to sing and dance and act believably.
The two most painful things in my life are arthritis and divorce.
Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon intimidated us all because she walked in and was going to be the dance captain. She was a great star, but she loved that kind of work as his assistant.
I can be myself everywhere and be happy and confident and not feel that I am just what I do.
Doing a musical is not just acting. It's total theater. When you have to justify the enormous projection of energy it takes to just go into song and dance, you realized why it's such a humbling experience every time you go into a show.
Any time I can come to L.A., because I live in New York... when I go to L.A., it really is about the people, having reunions and seeing my friends I don't see enough.
Sound should bring you in. We have people in all these specialized departments to make it one whole. They are supposed to work together to bring us into their world, not push us away. For example, rock music has to be loud, but it doesn't have to be too loud.
When I saw 'Chess' in London, I thought it was horrible. It was so static. People were coming down front and just facing the audience, singing.
It has always been important to me to be a creative artist, not to be a star, not to be rich, not to be famous.
I thought if I didn't write my own show, I'll rust.
