I wouldn't want to be just pigeonholed as an extravagant director.

I really don't spend time thinking about the past. I think about the future. I'm not stopping.

The truth is, for some absurd reason, no one is willing to admit that the interests of the producers and the theater owners are not the same.

Despite the successes, you remember the failures - rather lovingly.

I'm a pragmatic man. I'll veer on the dangerous side, because I love dangerous subjects, but I won't shoot a show in the foot.

I don't like abrasion while I'm working. I don't thrive on chaos. I enjoy what I'm doing, and it seems to work better when I am enjoying it.

I remember when people actually wore coats and ties to theatre every night. They don't anymore. It's very different.
