Quotes 

• Annie Snodgrass : I don't know why, but every time there's a rehearsal, those books won't balance somehow.

  Oswald : Well, I'll tell you why, Annie. You don't think of anything but your art anymore. Me, and your job at the bank, don't mean "that" now. Look, Annie, won't you give up the Union Bank Little Theater Players just for me?

  Annie Snodgrass : You know I love you madly, Oswald. But I couldn't give up my career, even for you. No woman that has known the triumphs that I knew when I played Lady Windermere's Fan in the Fall River High School senior play can ever get the theater out of her blood.

• T. Fenny Sylvester : [to Toots, as Annie finishes her song, in front of Fenny and his hoods]  Moniker.

  Toots McGuire : [to Annie, translating]  He wants to know, what's your name?

  Annie Snodgrass : Annie Snodgrass.

  [chuckles nervously] 

  T. Fenny Sylvester : [to Toots]  Where's she musclin'?

  Toots McGuire : [translating]  Where do ya' work at?

  Annie Snodgrass : At the Union Bank... uh, Drafts and Collections.

  [Fenny and his hoods say nothing and quietly leave the rehearsal room]
