I've been very fortunate to go from interesting chapter to interesting chapter. I've always enjoyed the process and always enjoyed working more really than the end result of what it achieves. I'm more interested in doing the work.

I don't know, but I think kids just want to be listened to, so I want to make sure I do that.

When you call someone and ask them to do something they've never done before, in different mediums I think they would be inclined to pass because they're afraid of the risk. But the creative people who populate the theater world love the challenge of new things.

I'm not trying to climb a ladder - I'm casting a bit of a net.

I'm probably my biggest critic. I worry that if you spend any quality time reveling in good things then karma will slap you upside the head, so I try to stay as even keel as I'm able.

Oh sure, now you like him [after the audience applaud David Oyelowo].

The theater is reaching as many different demographics as it can now.
