"the Fever" Is A One-person Play. I

My Plays Have Been Strange From The Beginning, And They Never Got Unstrange.

I Know That I Am One And I've Made A Living As An Actor And I Enjoy Being An Actor, But When I'm Not Actually Doing It, I Forget That I Do 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.

I Don't See That Many Plays, And For Me, Musicals Are Rarely Pleasing.
