Hollywood Is Geared Toward Teenage Idiocy.

The Fantastic Thing About The Theatre Is That It Can Make Something Be Seen That's Invisible, And That's Where My Interest In Theatre Is- That You Can Be Watching This Thing Happening With Actors And Costumes And Light And Set And Language, And Even Plot, And Something Emerges From Beyond That, And That's The Image Part That I'm Looking For, That Sort Of Added Dimension.

I Still Haven't Gotten Over This Thing Of Walking Down The Street And Somebody Recognizing You Because You've Been In A Movie. There's This Illusion That Movie Stars Only Exist In The Movies. And To See One Live Is Like Seeing A Leopard Let Out Of The Zoo.

I've Come To Feel That If I Can't Make Something Happen In Under An Hour And A Half, It's Not Going To Happen In A Compelling Way In A Three-hour Play.

Ive Been So Spoiled In The Theater, Writing Plays Where I Can Just Do Exactly What I Want And Nobody Messes With Me.

When I First Started, I Didn't Really Know How To Structure A Play. I Could Write Dialogue, But I Just Sort Of Failed Beyond That, And Kind Of Went Wherever I Wanted To Go.
