Who is your favourite composer?

Verdi - two of the operas I first fell in love with were Traviata and Rigoletto - but I find his style and

drama to be unparalleled.

What do you consider your most important mission as an artist?

My most important mission as an artist is to take my audience on a journey, and to help them

escape their day-to-day life. This is true in both comedy and tragedy. I believe it is our job to share

magic with our audience.

Road Trip or Flying Away?
