Acting Is An Escape From The Boring

I'm Being Mocked Because I Don't Live Up To A Socially Determined View Of What Other People Think A Person Should Look Like.

Even With My Wife, I Find Sharing Soup Is Hard.

All Of My Plays Have Puzzled Some People, And I'm Happy To Say Delighted A Few, But A Lot Of People Have Just Not Seen How Quite To Look At Them. And This Film... If You Like My Writing, You'll Like This Film. If You Don't, You Won't Like The Film. It's Pretty Faithful To - It's A Pretty Uncompromising Presentation Of My Way Of Seeing Things, I Suppose.

What I'm Really Involved In When I'm Writing Is Something That No One Ever Mentions When They See Any Play. Writing Is Like Trying To Make Gunpowder Out Of Chemicals. You Have These Words And Sentences And The Strange Meanings And Associations That Are Attached To The Words And Sentences, And You're Somehow Cooking These Things All Up So That They Suddenly Explode And Have A Powerful Effect. That's What Absorbs Me From Day To Day In Writing A Play.

I Never Grew Up Thinking, 'one Day I Will Play So And So' Because I Wasn't Expecting To Be An Actor At All.
