Admiring Quote by Tituss Burgess
“I've grown up watching and admiring Norm. Sherie actually starred in the first off-Broadway show I ever saw in New York, which was The Last Five Years.

And to know her as a friend, know her as someone who we just have fun, whatever, and then see how present she is when she's working and how…” quote by Ellen Page](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/77f/ellen-page-2745_different_i-think-that-is-funny-to-say-because-i-v_2207364.jpg)
