In An Amusement Park, You Can Go

"the Fever" Is A One-person Play. I Decided I Would Perform It Myself, And I Decided I Would Not Perform It In Theaters, Because The Character In The Play Says Certain Things That I Meant.

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

I Never Planned To Be An Actor. It Turned Out I Could Make A Living Doing It.

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.

After Being In One Movie, It Didn't Seem Like That Would Be My Life. I Had Done Several Jobs, Briefly. I'd Been A Shipping Clerk, I Worked In A Copy Shop, I Didn't Think The Acting Was Going To Go On And On.
