The Only Reason I Acted In School Was Because Of The Community. I Was In The Chorus Of Every Play And Was Never The Lead Other Than One Time, But To Me It Was About The Community. I Was An English Major And My Whole Goal Was To Be An English Teacher And Was Lucky Enough To Get Into The Playwriting Group. The Whole Experience I Had At Brown Was Eye Opening And The Most Mind-bending Experience.

To Be An Actor And A Director, I Actually Felt It Helped Me Tremendously To Be In The Scenes Of The Hollars, Because As You Can See, They're Very Intimate, Very Intense Scenes. You Don't Want To Break The Actor's Character And You Don't Want To Break Their Momentum, So As The Actor, I Tried Not To Call Cut As Much As I Could, And Almost Make It Feel Like A Play, Just Set This Environment Where These Amazing Actors Could Do What They Wanted To Do.
