  • When Terrence Mann and Charlotte d'Amboise first met, they shared an animal attraction — literally. It was and Mann was dressed as the rambunctious tiger cat Rum Tum Tugger in the hit musical Cats, while d'Amboise was stepping in for the sleek Siamese, Cassandra. From the minute Mann saw the legendary Jacques d'Amboise's daughter dance, there was an instant connection. It took them a few years — and a little less fur — to become an actual couple, but now they have two kids (Josephine, 13 and Shelby, 12), and continue to work together: falling in love all over again as costars in the revival of Pippinand running Triple Arts, their summer intensive theatre school with sessions in North Carolina (where Mann is a professor at Western Carolina University) and New York. They truly have mated for life.

    For this latest installation of A Fine Showmance, d'Amboise and Mann talk about making out backstage at the Winter Garden Theatre, those sexy cat leotards and never going onstage mad at each other — especially when one is throwing knives.

    You have worked together both on stage and as the founders of Triple Arts. Is it harder to do one than the other, as a couple?
    CD: Teaching is a lot tougher. Onstage you're just doing your job. We just do what we've been doing our whole lives, and that's all we have to focus on. With Triple Arts we're running a whole program. We have to figure out who's getting paid. Who's doing what. What we're going to choreograph. What are we going to direct. What the show going to be. Who we're going to use. You have to really get along to be able to agree on every aspect. It's a lot of work, but we love it. It's like going to bootcamp. You can't really do anything else, so we're with each other all the time, and it's good. Right honey?
    TM: I just agree with everything that she says.

    That's smart! What tips do you have for other couples who are in the business a

    In an interview with the Hartford Courant, Mann said: "When I was doing the junior class play — it was called 'In Deadly Earnest' — at the end of a scene, the script said, 'They kiss.' It was then that I honestly thought, 'I'm going to be in the theater!' I was fascinated with having words put in my mouth and that someone would say something back to me that would get us to a moment where we ended up
