"I'm not your classic, ya' know, started singing and dancing at a young age and grew up. I am quite literally your real life Glee story."
"I threw myself into jazz, ballet, tap. Literally, if the class was available in my schedule, I would do the class."
"My parents are looking at me like, 'Hey, did you know he could sing?' I said, 'I didn't know I could sing'."
"I moved to New York. I had an agent. My agent goes, 'Hey, ya' booked this job.' It was the first one that I'd booked through him. It was an inaugural cruise ship... And he said, 'Hey, congratulations. I don't think we're going to take this. But, glad you booked it.' And I said, 'Um, I think we're going to take this' ... So, he goes, 'Alright, I'll see you when you come back' and I never made it back, because on that contract is where I met... my wife."
"We have no problems just picking up and moving and showing up somewhere new 'cause we know we can make it work. And we know how to use our skills to find the work that we need to find and be happy doing it."
"There's a fantastic website called VegasAuditions.com. So, if you're in the Vegas market, subscribe to it, because you need it. It's basically Backstage, but specifically for Vegas. It's where everyone makes all of their audition announcements."
"I think the most fun I ever had in a show, hands down, is Pin Up."
"You are cast because of a specific look; not just because of your skill, but the way you look and you have to maintain that."
"For... performers in general, I think there is one question that almost none of us ask ourselves, and it is, what do you want out of your entertainment career. We almost never take the time to answer that for ourselves... And this question is so important because this industry is so big."
"Your energy that you give, and that energy, when you go into rooms and you're auditioning, that makes you more bookable, makes you more desirable, and that ultimately makes you more successful."
"We were the opener. We had about a 40-minute production show that we did... and it culminated with us transitioning into Bruno Mars, who gave everyone an hour private concert."
"This is what I love about being an entertainer, is that we always work when everyone else is having fun, because we're supplying the entertainment. But I find so much fun in that... we get to do something that we're passionate about and loving and we get paid and we get to experience and be on-stage with really cool people and do some really high quality work and then have a party!"
"When we are on stage, it's us that's going to look like the fool if we don't know what we're doing or we don't do it properly. It's not the producer. They can always replace you. The producer's not going to get the bad review, you will."
