Zitat des Tages von Scott Ellis:
'Twelve Angry Men' was done with an intermission, and I took that out. I really wanted an audience to feel like they had no break, just like those jurors, and you're not going to get out of that room until you come to a decision.
The theatre show-biz types don't change much, no matter what era we're in. The question of how you balance being in show business with your personal life isn't very different.
I don't consider myself a flashy director. A lot of times, people will look and don't even know what I do.
My directing style has changed over the years. I allow things to breathe a lot more.
Any director who comes into a revival owes a great deal to the original director. If I know the backbone works, it gives me, as a director, much more freedom to bring something new to it or try something different.
A bad laugh is a laugh for the sake of a laugh that's out of character.
My first time ever on the Tony Awards was in 1984, the year of 'The Rink.'
I get to choose the people I work with.
As an actor, you don't have control over what you do, whom you work with.
