All good writers across the board, if they're dealing with real tragedy, they will give you comedy in it. And if they're dealing with real comedy, there will be tragic moments in it.

I'm going to be criticized by lots of "scholars," but I think Shakespeare's best comedy often appears in his tragedies, actually. Not necessarily in his comedies.

To work around and be successful in a round configuration in the theater, you have to connect with everyone.

I think part of the sadness of Hamlet is given different circumstances, this guy had the capability of being something really great and not ending up poisoned on the ground.

I think Hamlet is a very funny play - Hamlet is riddled with wit.

I loved sports, so acting died and it was all sport. But I always used to get in trouble, because after lights out I would sneak out to watch things on TV.

You don't really audition for Hamlet; Hamlet is one of those roles that a director or producer decides you should do it.
