"The cast of MJ is filled with beautiful souls matched only by their immense talent. To receive the Legacy Robe in their company and stand before them as representative of the hard work and dedication that it takes to participate in a Broadway ensemble filled/fills me with pride. I also found myself reflecting upon the other Legacy Robe recipients that I’ve had the pleasure of sharing the stage with and that was very humbling for me because I hold those folks in such high regard."
