00:08Thoughts about entrance applause, like it or not?

00:10There was a time I was getting entrance applause, but there was a really great lyric that I

00:14sang, pointless erection, which I don't want people to mention.

00:18I have strangely the weirdest thing, because people clap for Allison Janney and John Benjamin

00:23Hickey, and they come on a lot earlier, and then I come a quarter of the way into the

00:27play, and people are like, confused, I never know what to do.

00:32Arthur Miller built in a wonderful thing for Solomon, which is, we come up a staircase to

01:22But we come out, like I said, for the second act, for the other end of the blackout.

01:27You know, so you have the blackout, we all stumble off stage.

01:36You're trying to get a little blackout so the audience gets the effect of a blackout.

01:40Yeah, sure, yeah, sure.
