Brian d'Arcy James: Frank Houston

Quotes 

  • [a video clip of Ivy Lynn recording a demo for "Marilyn: The Musical" goes viral] 

    Frank Houston : Wow, it's everywhere.

    Julia Houston : It's idiotic theater blogs. I hate everyone who writes theater blogs!

    Frank Houston : Okay, some of it is...

    Julia Houston : Okay, I don't wanna know!

    [lies down] 

    Julia Houston : My God, this sucks! It gets out too fast! And then everyone just rushes to judgement before we even *have* a first draft! Reidel! Oh! Reidel started going after "Spider-Man" before they even started previews! He was already attacking everyone before they even started maiming people!

    [Frank laughs] 

    Julia Houston : Yeah, I know, I know. You didn't want me to do it. And you know? Fine, you were right. It's just a complete waste of time.

    Frank Houston : Reidel picked it up.

    Julia Houston : Of course he did! Little creep! Tom called him a Napoleonic Nazi. So right.

    [Frank laughs again, Julia giggles] 

    Julia Houston : "Napoleonic Nazi", it's good.

    Frank Houston : No. It's just, uh, Reidel loves "Marilyn". He's a huge fan of you and Tom, thinks "Heaven on Earth" is the best musical on Broadway in spite of its hideous title. Thinks the number online is a smash.

    [Julia climbs onto the bed next to Frank and looks at the article] 

    Julia Houston : Y'know, he's much smarter than people give him credit for. Everyone gets so mad at him, but he tells the truth.
