No babies, thank you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did my studies in classical voice and have now sung professionally in North America and continental Europe. Generally opera, but there will always be a place in my heart for musicals. #theatrequeen....

Oh and recently I survived my first gay cruise. The kind at sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

"You can't live in a world without an idea of the world,
but it's living that makes the ideas. You can't wait for a theory,
but you have to have a theory."
Tony Kushner, Angels in America

"And if I ever meet Joyce DeWitt, I will first apologize for having immediately punched her in the face, and then I will thank her. For while she looked like a Liza Minnelli doll that had been damaged in a fire, at least she didn't look like everybody else on TV."
Tina Fey, Bossypants
