John O?Hurley on Why Acting in a Broadway Show Is The Most Gratifying

John O?Hurley has been in movies and television shows, but for him there?s nothing more fulfilling than starring in a Broadway show. StarCam?s Jennifer Tapiero caught up with John at opening night of Chicago at Pantages Theater, which he stars in with Christie Brinkley.

?For the type of actor that I am, it?s the most gratifying,? he said. ?I love the laughter. I love hearing the laughter, but I also love hearing the silence of the room; the silence of 2,500 people being still enough to actually listen to you, be moved by something and catch the nuances of what you?re doing. That?s important to me and it?s organic. It starts from A every night and goes to Z. It has a beginning, middle and an end. You can?t stop in the middle once it has started. That?s all there is, so you just leap and hope the net will appear?I say one little prayer before I go on stage and that is that some time during the night I?m going to surprise myself.?

John went on to talk about how lovely it has been working with Christie and how much better it makes him feel about the fact that he couldn?t get a date to senior prom, but 40 years later Christie Brinkley is sitting on his lap! Check out the full interview for all of the exclusive details!
