I think I'm a little more daunted by when the machinery of the play is really huge.

It's strange, people have asked me what my schedule is and what is my process like, and I can't even answer it.

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

I think auditioning can be very reductive and I just hate how actors work really hard and most of them aren't going to get the job, and I hate putting them through that.

I don't like the sort of hierarchical, totalitarian type of room a lot of directors can find themselves in.

I had a sort of bad experiences as a playwright early on, when directors were putting in huge concepts that I didn't intend, or they were stylizing something that was compromising the play, so I started to think like, "well if I'm going to fight against this, I should learn how to direct".

There must be some unwritten law that says about fifty people have to move into your house when somebody dies. If it weren't for the smell of death clinging to the walls, you might think it was your family's turn to host the month neighborhood potluck supper.
