It’s always been a dream of mine to do a voice for a Disney movie. I think Disney movies and theater are very closely related. That would be amazing.

Do what you love to do and give it your very best. Whether it’s business or baseball, or the theater, or any field. If you don’t love what you’re doing and you can’t give it your best, get out of it. Life is too short. You’ll be an old man before you know it Picture Quote #1

My curse on plays That have to be set up in fifty ways, On the day’s war with every knave and dolt, Theater business, management of men Picture Quote #1

Because I trained in theater, I always leave a film shoot feeling like I haven’t done anything, like I just sat in front of the camera and whispered, essentially Picture Quote #1

I think movies say a lot [about real life], even more than theater. It says a lot about the invisible, that movies are so fascinating.

It’s like you’re exploring a secret, so you explore the director’s secret, you explore the actor’s secret, and therefore you explore the universe’s secrets Picture Quote #1

I feel that doing theater does give you a good grounding to work on camera. The audience is the lens Picture Quote #1

Theater in New York is nearer to the street. In London, you have to go deep into the building, usually, to reach the place where theater happens.

I set writing aside when I went into theater, and then I set theater aside and subsequently had about a 25-year career in software development. Which, by the way, is a very creative field. I equate it more to kinetic sculpture than anything else, as an activity Picture Quote #1

I had no idea I was going to have a career in the theater. I did not plan it Picture Quote #1

I’ve always sung. I was really into musical theater when I was growing up. As a kid, I listened to Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone, actually, on cassette tapes Picture Quote #1

Violent drama has been a hallmark of every great civilization. It is not the cause of the disease - it is an immunizing factor. People go to the theater to experience emotions like fear and loathing. Violent drama shows us where we come from. It makes us face our hypocrisy Picture Quote #1
