When I'm directing, I'm pretty much not writing, but when I'm not directing I am writing a lot.

I've never really felt good at the parties, but I have enough friends now that I feel social, I used to feel very antisocial, but I think the theater helps.

Sometimes when I'm directing, the stage manager will have a good idea and that's okay with me.

I just love working with actors, and I love working with writers, working with designers.

I find that more and more I'm trying to entertain myself when I'm working, because I know the work's going to go to a horrible place.

Whenever I've been in rehearsals, it's really fun, there's always laughing.

When I am directing, it is much, much, much, much, much different. I'm a much more practical person in the world, I show up on time, I am very rigorous about scheduling, and I am very focused. But when I'm writing I am just a big, irresponsible mess and I'm just impossible to get in touch with, and I don't spend time with friends.
