My acting experience has been a benefit. What I learned from directors is how to listen to and talk with actors. I know how they think and what they need.
From Scott Ellis
When you're working on a play like 'Sloane,' that play works; you don't have to worry about that. When you're working on a new play like 'Little Dog,' you have no clue if the play works. You're exploring.
'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.
I'm big on research. I love research, so I tend to do a lot of reading.
