It was something for a town to rally around, whether we had a winning season or a losing season. It was a place to go gossip, a place to go see friends.

But the part was enlarged in rehearsal: songs were added, and it became more physicalized and showy. Then I won awards and got attention.

To me, it's about good work, a good story, and tastefully done. There's so many stigmas - oh, you're on the small screen or you do films or you do reality. It's about the project and not the medium on which it's delivered. It's the story you tell, period.
