“All great dramatic literature is an attempt to find commonality among the struggles we face as human beings. It weaves an empathetic thread between the fictional battle of a heroic protagonist and our own real-world struggle to create order out of the chaos of the world. This journey is universal regardless of identity or background. ”
“Most of my work with inexperienced actors comes down to helping them trust that they are enough. ”
