On Creating a State of Play When He’s Performing When you’re playing, you’re open and you’re living. I want everybody to come and act like we’re in kindergarten. As a schoolteacher, I would tell a 5-year-old, “Okay, come sing.” “I can’t sing.” “You’re 5! What are you talking about? How do you know?” My point is, if you’re being playful and you’re just in the shower singing, you’re not thinking about how you can’t sing — you’re just singing.

Let’s say her show got a 0.
My manager called: “Hey, sorry, man, they’re letting go of the show.” Then the two brothers who created the show — Robb Cullen and Mark Cullen — call me separately: “Hey, man, just letting you know …” By the time Billy Gardell called, I was like, “I HEARD ALREADY!” But I was literally sitting there, holding my chair, like, How?
