Christopher Jackson

I'd like to think of myself as an ambassador for Broadway.

To me there's nothing more fascinating than a roomful of young people just trying to look at the world and seeing how they can affect it as they're being affected by it.

I'm used to multitasking... I like it that way. I like when things are busy. I strive off the pace.

I pay attention when people get manicures and pedicures. I've always noticed it as a guy. When my wife goes to get her nails done, I'm always very aware of it.

It instantly felt like, for me as an actor that I justified, I was able to draw a direct relation between Chris the actor and being George Washington.

I love television, and I get so spoiled because I'm coming from such an amazing ensemble in 'Hamilton' to such an amazing ensemble on 'Bull.'

If you can save one body, and one heart and soul and mind, then it's a worthy cause and a worthy venture.

I love to write.

Being a part of the 'Hamilton' family has been the most thrilling and rewarding experience of my career.

Well, theater is kind of my life blood. Not kind of - it is my life blood.

I came into the business where Will Smith was pretty much taking over the world - or defending it, if you will. He was showing success on so many different fronts - television, recording, movies. So that was really my prototype in terms of looking at the business and seeing where you fit in.

When I was doing 'In the Heights,' I was the co-music supervisor for 'The Electric Company' on PBS, so I was writing songs all day, doing the show, staying up until 3 A. M. Writing more songs, recording demos in the intermission in my dressing room.
