“Being on 'Glee' was amazing. I remember my first day on set, my first day I arrived to the set I was in my trailer and all of the actors came and banged on my door - Lea Michele, Chris Colfer, Amber Riley, Naya Rivera.

“... most of all the actor will love the boys and girls, the men and women, who sit in the cheapest seats, in the very last row of the top gallery. They have given more than they can afford to come. In the most self-effacing spirit of fellowship they are listening to catch every word, watching to miss no slightest gesture or expression. To save his life the actor cannot help feeling these nearest and dearest. He cannot help wishing to do his best for them. He cannot help loving them best of all.” MenSelfHelpingFeelingsLastsSpiritGirlActorsGivenWishBoysMissingHe ManExpressionListeningMen And WomenSeatsGesturesFellowshipGalleryBoy And Girl Author:Minnie Maddern Fiske
