I will miss Daniella Jamille so, so very much! I've been layering on from the beginning and I've grown as a performer and as a person. I've just been tapping into my character’s essence, who she really is, ya know? What makes her so passionate and so committed to getting Pippin to take the journey. I've grown so much, oh my god! The beauty with this piece is that I get to try again each night. How do you think you’ve grown during your time at this job? My last piece of advice is that they allow themselves to really go on a journey and not be afraid to connect with those beautiful audiences we have each night! The job ain’t easy, but that's what makes this part so exciting, because you constantly get to work every night on making it better and better. Make sure they find time to rest (something I haven’t been able to do for a I think it’s important). What advice would you give to future employees in your job position? Hmmm… Fast learner, someone who isn’t afraid to do anything, someone who's bendy and has a good set of hips, and most importantly someone who gives it everything they got!! What skills do you think are required for future job applicants? What I love is how connected and invested each and every one was and have been each night for over a year! Everyone works so hard and it’s nice to be in a company with people who work just as hard as you do. I so enjoyed doing this show nightly with them. Hearing the nightly gasps when the curtain dropped to reveal the cast during “Magic To Do!” Also, I mean, I keep mentioning my cast but they were a huge highlight for me during this time. What was the highlight of your time at this job? And, obviously, learning how we all vibed onstage-how the Fosse and circus worked together. The hardest part for me in the beginning was figuring out how this world operated and what we were trying to say with this piece. What was the easiest thing about the job?įalling in love with my character and my fellow actors! It really is a special group, I can’t really explain it, but we gelled in the first few moments of working together. What are three words you would use to describe your experience at the job? It definitely feels strange, I won’t lie!!!! LOL. I will miss them and cherish every moment we've had. These people have become my family and I’ve enjoyed every single moment on and offstage with them. I am so proud of what we've done in bringing this classic back in such an inventive way. Finding out that I had gotten this role shortly after was so exciting, and I just remember being so giddy and pumped to get started. It felt amazing! Having just left Sister Act, I didn’t know what I would be doing next and I was trying to adjust to life without eight shows a week. How did you feel when you first got the job? As she leaves the big top for The Hunger Games, Miller looks back on her “fulfilling, strenuous and happy” year in the circus-inspired musical extravaganza. Patina Miller will say goodbye to the Pippin circus on March 30, when she completes her Tony-winning run as the Leading Player. Although that concept doesn't exist for Broadway performers, we think it's fun to check in with stars as they finish up a successful run. In the corporate world, employees leaving a job are asked to sit through an "exit interview" with HR about their time at the company.
