When my parents separated, I was very grateful.

On the one hand, I'm grateful to be hired and thrilled to be paid.

I thought if I can do something more playful and light like my play BEYOND THERAPY, it might be a money maker. I think one of the reasons BEYOND THERAPY has legs - it's been very successful for me around the country - is because it's a friendly play, rather sunny.

My father knew the charming side of my mother, and my mother thought that he was attentive and pleasant and was an architect, which was a respectable profession, but I don't think that they actually got to know one another deeply.

I grew up wanting to be a writer for theatre.

I never graduated to being an atheist. I only graduated to being an agnostic.

Since I also act, sometimes I get over my resentment and commit to the pitch as an acting job.
