It's A Joy To Be Up Close

Some Directors Don't Tell You That It's Not Your Fault, So You Get Increasingly Depressed That You're Not Delivering What's Required, And Then You Discover It's Not You At All, It's Something In The Background That's Out Of Focus.

The Demographic Of Our Audience Is Young. It Also Contains A High Proportion Of Black, Jewish And Gay People, Who Have All Been Encouraged By Society To Think Of Themselves As Oddities Or Mutants.

What I Particularly Like About Broadway Is The Camaraderie And The Friendship Of Other People In Other Shows. Everybody Knows You're Opening And Cares About You. There's A Real Village Atmosphere.
