When you're performing on Broadway every night, you're so much more accessible to people in the industry. Everybody is going to know who you are.
My introduction to Woody Allen and to Ethan Coen was at the same time. On Broadway, I starred in a play called 'Relatively Speaking,' which was three one-act comedies, one of which was written by Ethan and one of which was by Woody.
