“The Gypsy Robe represents the history of musical theatre and I'm so honored to be a part of it. I've been to many Robe ceremonies, both for shows I was in and as a Councilor representing Equity. It's often touching and emotional to attend, but that’s nothing compared to actually receiving it yourself. Hearing my name called (and it was a surprise as others in my show had the same number of credits) was a thrilling moment. It's something that will always be mine. It makes me truly feel a part of the Broadway community, like I've truly arrived after 35 years in the business! Also, as a Chorus Councilor, it feels like the cherry on top of the sundae.
The cheering and stomping of my company as I circled the stage and their love and support and happiness for me all night long is a memory I'll keep with me always.”
