That when I looked at Yoda and he was manipulating him, I totally believed he was real. I mean, a lot of times they would bury him out of sight underground.

It was all three of us together. It was so much fun. And We enjoyed each other's company. And then in Empire, I go away. I mean, I don't even get to keep C-3PO.

I did the first national tour and then I did it on Broadway.
