I Don’t Want To Be A Mentor In My Bedroom.

I Remember My First Friend Who Got Sick. It Was 1981, And The Disease Was Called The Gay Cancer. I Don't Think The Word 'aids' Came Out Until '84. I Just Remember It Being Terrifying As More People Got Sick. We Didn't Know How You Could Catch It, You Heard All Kinds Of Crazy Things.

I'd Never Say I'll Never Have A Facelift, But I'm Way Too Scared Of Looking Like A Different Person. I Have No Philosophical Or Political Position On Plastic Surgery; I Just Don't Want To Look Crazy. And I Don't Like Not Being Able To Tell How Old Someone Is: It's Creepy.

I'm Method Trained. How Is This Character Like Me? What Does She Think Of Her Mother? What Does Her Mother Think Of Her? It's Like Construction, And Then, Yes, You Hope You're Talented And That The Universe Aligns And Captures The Kind Of Laborer's Work You've Done And Whatever Else Sprinkles Down On You, And It's All Caught On Film Or Onstage.
