"I'm back home in Somerset, England on a farm right now. I was playing with my daughter this morning and I got the news. I'm so pleased! I think it's a great play and I'm so thrilled that it's working so well it the states. The Music Box Theatre is the most beautiful space I've been in. Being on Broadway is totally new experience for me, and I love that the atmosphere is so intimate. I'll be going out to dinner tonight to celebrate!"
