Rupert Holmes
I've tried in my career to do most everything, because it all intrigues me. And I've found the first time I work in a new form, I discover all the things that make that an exciting medium. I've been very busy most of my career. I've had very few vacations.

Rupert Holmes
I didn't want much. I wanted much more. In fact, I wanted everything.
Rupert Holmes
I always try to keep in mind that while the characters in a farce may find themselves in outrageous dilemmas, and may behave in a way that the audience finds amusing, the characters themselves don't have the consolation of knowing they're in a comedy.

I first had the thought about making a musical of 'Edwin Drood' as far back as 1971.
