I'm Sure There Are Some Good Dramaturgs

I Think A Playwright Must Be His Own Dramaturg. I Believe In A Theater Where The Director And The Playwright Work Together To Create What They Need.

The Imagination Says Listen To Me. I Am Your Darkest Voice. I Am Your 4 A.m. Voice. I Am The Voice That Wakes You Up And Says This Is What I'm Afraid Of. Do Not Listen To Me At Your Peril.... The Imagination Is Not Our Escape. On The Contrary, The Imagination Is The Place We Are All Trying To Get To.

Does Any Art Have A Practical Value? People Love To Talk About How Expensive A Painting Is. That's The Only Way We Can Talk About Paintings In This Century.

Oh God, I'd Just Hate It If A Certain Dramaturg Got A Hold Of A Pinter Play, For Example, Which Are All Mystery And All Music. That's How The Life Get's Sucked Out Of Plays.

Everyone Talks About America, This Great Country. You Hear, "i'm More Patriotic Than You Are. No, I'm More Patriotic!" But How Few People Know The History Of This Country And How We Came Into Being. That's The Part That Just Amazed Me.
