Some Of My Favorite Characters That I've

I Like Variety, Which Is Frustrating. But I've Always Been Picky. I Was Afraid Pirates Would Be Too Much Like Twentieth Century, Broad Comedy. But My Agent Talked Me Into It. I Was Spoiled By The Range Of A Repertory Theater.

Most Of The Comedies I've Done Have Been Rather Farcical And Extravagant.

I See A Steady Downward Slope Toward Oblivion Over The Next Three Years. I'm Pessimistic. Everything That's Happened To Me So Far Has Been Kind Of Flukey. I Went Into Twentieth Century Because I Wanted To Work For Hal Prince. The Part Was Too Small According To My Agent. I Had Been Doing Only Leading Parts, And He Thought I Should Continue That. But The Part Was Enlarged In Rehearsal: Songs Were Added, And It Became More Physicalized And Showy. Then I Won Awards And Got Attention.

Don't Kiss A Man Who Hasn't Shaved.

I Think Every American Actor Wants To Be A Movie Star. But I Never Wanted To Do Stupid Movies, I Wanted To Do Films. I Vowed I Would Never Do A Commercial, Nor Would I Do A Soap Opera - Both Of Which I Did As Soon As I Left The Acting Company And Was Starving.
