Quote: "I was a nice suburban girl... I never thought I would ever - I'm really giving it away now aren't I? - ever try a spliff. In fact, I'm ashamed to admit I think I got fired from (stage production) Hair eventually. Not for smoking dope but they used the excuse that we had been caught smoking on the roof."
