"Rose was sexy. It was my fantasy about her. She accomplished so much and came from so little in term..." — Linda Lavin

Talking about auditions, you never know what anyone else is thinking.

It was always acting, singing and dancing that I loved.

We do a lot of shows for young people who have probably never been to the theater before and they are learning about the Holocaust, which unhappily, many of them do not know about.

I'd forget the piece just before I went out to do the concerto, the panic was too great. This was not anything that gave me pleasure. This was fulfilling somebody else's dream.
