Sometimes I Would Go Home From Work

When I Was In High School And College, My Other Real Focus Was, Actually, Fiction Writing. So In College, I Had Done All These Seminars With These Various Writers-in-residence.

Theresa Rebeck's Writing Is So Scarily Funny. I Just Love How Unapologetic She Is With Her Writing: She Doesn't Try To Make Her Characters Likeable Or Heroic, She Just Really Makes Them Human. Hopefully, The Audience Is Able To Love Them In The End - Or Have Whatever Feelings That They Want To Have About All Of Them - But I Love That She Doesn't Have That Agenda. That Is Something That, As An Actress, Was Really Appealing To Me; To Just Get To Be In This Group Of People Who Are Complicated And Very Human.

I Had Never Done A 90-minute Play With No Intermission, So It Is A Bit Like You Get Onto The Train And You Don't Get Off Until It's Over - And It's Over Very Quickly, So Don't Miss A Moment Of It. That Experience Is Very Rare And Specific So Don't Miss A Minute, Because There Aren't Very Many Minutes Of It.

I Was Shooting Beyond Redemption, I Started Shooting American Horror Story, So I Was Going Back And Forth Between Northern California And La. That Was Not Bad At All - That Flight Is Like Getting On The Subway, It's Nothing. And Then During Rehearsals.

I Re-read A Lot Of My College Writing While We Were In Rehearsals, And It Was So Strange. It Was Wonderful To Go Back And Revisit That Part Of My Life. It Did Kind Of Make Me Hungry For It Again.
