The Joy About The Recording

When I Was Nine, We'd Take A Bus To The Seaside. Coming Back, We'd Take Turns Entertaining, Singing Songs And The Like. I Tried Some Stand-up Comedy. I Had A Captive Audience In That Bus. Then I Realized I Wanted To Do More Than That.

I'd Get More Applause Than Some Because I Was Just Seventeen. If They Didn't Clap At The End Of My Act I Would Limp Off Stage And Boy Would They Feel Guilty. They Would All Burst Into Tremendous Applause As They Saw This Poor Cripple Kid Walking Off.

I Remember Certain People In The Audience Laughing And I Wanted To Ask: 'what Are You Laughing At? This Isn't Funny.' Now I Realize That Laughter Can Come From Insecurity. They Don't Know How They Should Be Feeling.

A Career In The Theatre Demands So Much Commitment.

You've Got To Love The Villain If You Have To Play Him. You've Got To Find Something That You Can Live With In Yourself If You're Going To Play The Villain In A Play On Stage.
