You Cannot Please All Of

In My World, History Comes Down To Language And Art.

I Refuse To Do Shows That Are Narrowly Constructed, That Appeal To Only One Sentiment. I Do A Lot Of Jewish Material In Front Of Non-jews And A Lot Of Non-jewish Material In Front Of Jews On The Simple Theory That The Non-jews Are Entitled To A Glimpse Of A Jewish World And The Jews Are Entitled To A Glimpse Of The World.

I Created The Role Of Captain Von Trapp.

I Am First, And Foremost, An Actor. That's What I Am. To Me, A Song Is A Mini-drama. My Musical Ability Informs The Actor As Well Because It Gives Me A Sense Of Timing That Non-musicians Don't Have. So, One Hand Washes The Other.

Every Actor Wants To Direct And Produce, But I Made A Conscious Decision When I Was In College To Understand The 'business' Of 'show Business.'
