Getty ImagesIn a recent interview with the Guardian, Henson — who previously toyed with the idea of retiring — said she “still [has] a love for the craft” but that “the rose-colored glasses are off.”“This Broadway moment forced me to really sit down and pat myself on the back … that’s why I’m glad I came now,” she said, getting teary-eyed. “This is years of my hard work and me putting everything I have into all of these characters that I portray and earning the trust of my audience.”“It is hard out here. People are barely getting by, eggs and gas and groceries and insurance [are expensive],” she continued. “So when people come out of their pockets to purchase a ticket that has my name on it, I’m going to give them everything I got.”
