Beatrice J. Neuwirth Quotes

  • Ballet has always been how I defined myself – even as a child. It’s never been just a thing to do.
  • I’ve always loved to dance on stage. I’ve been doing ballet since I was five, and stage dancing since I was seven.
  • [about the film Tadpole (2000)] It’s more about who Oscar is that these women are falling in love with him than just his age. In that sense, it’s a little more European than we’re used to.

  • If you have to ask how to be sexy after 40, you probably can’t do it.
  • In a really well-written musical, you talk until you just can’t talk anymore, you’re going to have to sing. And when you’re just so full you can’t sing anymore, then you have to dance. It’s a natural progression.
