Kathleen Marshall News

This has been just great! It was a wonderful way to wake up. I actually found out by rolling over and looking at my phone because I thought for some reason that the announcements were being made at 9AM. And I woke up to my buzzing phone and so many texts. It's been such an honor- the whole awards season has been so crazy, because we only opened a month ago. Everything's happening so quickly, and I haven't had any expectations. It's so intimidating to step into such an iconic role that has been played by so many talented women. My goal was just to not mess it up too badly. This is just the icing. Kathleen [Marshall] allowed all of us to really create our own characters with their own intentions and the whole process has been a dream. I plan to have a glass of champagne with the cast, but the role is so demanding so I've gotta be smart about celebrating. I definitely wanna raise a glass tonight though!

'We're feeling pretty good. I've been up since 6 o'clock this morning, so unlike those who were sleeping I was wide awake. It's just wonderful because you see a classic show like this get so recognized in such a wonderful season with so many new and exciting shows and musicals. It's lovely, it's a wonderful gift and the double nomination, plus everything for the show - it's like Christmas morning with a bike and dollhouse under the tree! You are my first phone call, I got lots of emails from folks, but we were feeding breakfast to our twins with NY1 on in the background. I couldn't be happier!'
