There's nothing like a great piece of theater - a great performance in a great piece of theater.

If you cast your supporting cast well, it should be seamless. You shouldn't even notice who's a big part and who's a small part. A good cast enriches everything.

People grow and change and develop through their experiences, so ultimately you have to go with what's in the room - the feeling you get from them and what the camera picks up.

When Shakespeare doesn't feel like Shakespeare, it's the best.

The camera kind of finds things that the naked eye can't even see. By moving in a certain way, you're already telling part of the story.
