I go through phases of watching a ton of dance/performance, and I am bizarrely well-informed on the subject.

I actually don't read the press. All the writers I admire were significantly reclusive, and I'm still trying to figure out how they got to a place where they didn't have to talk to press.

One of the most incredible and important things about the theater is that we're creating a safe space for all feelings, but especially, ugly feelings.

I tried writing a novel, but plays were the thing that kept feeding me, asking me to come back, sit down and be with them.

I've just had some things to deal with, like family stuff, you know, lost my mom. Which is the most difficult stuff I've gone through. But it's just normal human stuff.

I am very family-orientated.

My family used to say, point-blank, 'We'd support you if we thought you could sing, or we thought you could write songs, but you can't.'

I need my family and friends around all the time. They are always my number one priority, and that will never change.
