2021-10-28 6

Tony Award-winning actor Alan Cumming opens up about his career and how he came into his own as a performer on "Salon Talks" with Mary Elizabeth Williams. "I think that's what makes me different is the lack of adherence to the rules of how you do a career," he said. In his second memoir, "Baggage: Tales from a Fully Packed Life," the multi-talented actor talks about how he’s chosen his eclectic list of projects, spanning from "Spy Kids" to "The Three-Penny Opera" to "Eyes Wide Shut," and what made him reprise the lead in the 2014 revival of "Cabaret" on Broadway.
