“I've always been totally obsessed with theater - especially musicals.” — Beanie Feldstein Quote

I've always been totally obsessed with theater - especially musicals.

I'm an expressive person.

When I think about filming 'Lady Bird,' I think about, dancing, eating, and laughing, which are three of my favorite things, so it's great.

I wake up every morning to 'Take a Chance on Me' as my iPhone alarm - it really gets you going.

My parents were really encouraging of me doing theater, but the one thing they did do was say, 'You're not allowed to do film or television in high school.'

One of things I'd love to do one day is a Shakespeare with Trevor Nunn. I've done musicals with him, but never Shakespeare. There's no one better.

Musicals are made of several climaxes that keep growing and growing; when you think it's over, it still continues growing up in plateaus.

It's really strange, this thing where people are like, 'I'm not into musicals' but so many people who have said that to me, I've taken to shows and watched their faces radiate.

A lot of people, especially from my generation, don't like musicals because they feel so much has been put in there for no reason.
