“If I miss my chance, I didn't even try
I'm not one to regret Christmas in July.”
Sufjan Stevens (1975) American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist
"Christmas in July" (2006)
Lyrics, Others
“The breaking of casting cliches also broke boundaries. A short, Latin-looking actress like me playing classical roles such as Miss Julie, and playing them well, made casting directors uncomfortable. It was unheard of that a short, dark-haired actress of Greek temperament could play the aristocratic Miss Julie. Not beautiful or tall enough etc. It proved one of the best productions of Miss Julie ever seen in London.”
On the formation of Internationalist Theatre.
