I think that the major message in 'Shrek: The Musical' is be who you want to be. I think that it is about being your true self in this world.

I think that there are a lot of elements and events that will make you scared in life and make you not want to sort of show your true self.

Be your true self. Because if you're not, there are consequences to be paid.

I think that what we were doing with the live musical version of 'Shrek' was taking the ideas and the structure of the movie and not necessarily reinventing it but reimagining it. It is a very different medium to perform.

What goes on in your innermost being is worth all your love, this is what you must work on however you can and not waste too much time and too much energy on clarifying your attitude to other people.

I think art is more glorious than life but not more real.
