I am very much in the instant-gratification camp. I am too much of an actor not to be. I am used to doing my work and having someone comment immediately. So I think that I'm a little hooked on that gratification structure.

I never wanted to be a playwright.

I just went through my childhood attic with my sister. I'm not an expert, and I don't mean to put myself in that category, but thinking about Malcolm Gladwell and the 10,000 hours, I was like, Here are my 10,000 hours!

I wouldn't wear makeup, and I didn't like to let boys open the door for me because I felt like it was sexist.

Every piece of writing I've done has been something where I feel like I need to get this out of me, whether it's a seed of something personal or an anxiety that turns into a play or an image that's in my mind and haunts me that I'm trying to investigate.

I've definitely gotten to work with female directors, and I feel lucky because of that. I just feel like more voices should be represented.

You set up the story, but the characters start talking, and they go places that you didn't expect. You have to follow.
