I had decent but not great grades in high school because I was highly motivated in some subjects, like the arts, drama, English, and history, but in math and science I was a screw-up. Wooster saw something in me, and I really flourished there. I got into theatre, took photography and painting classes.

In Mexico, theater is very underground, so if youre a theater actor its very difficult to make a living. But its also a very beautiful pathway to knowledge and to an open education.

I think since I was in drama school, I wanted to direct in the theatre. When you are an actor, you just have to open your eyes and you start to learn a lot about how to survive on set and what’s important and how to tell a story. Directing is really about putting yourself out there, to be slapped in a way. You know that in the kitchen, you’re gonna get burned. It’s very scary but very exciting as well. If you have something to say, you have nothing to lose and you probably learn from the experience.

In America, the average playwright makes less than a receptionist in a non-profit theatre. We don’t have decent health insurance – or any health insurance at all.

I actually have to defend realism in theatre because I think TV does it badly – so corrupted by layers of bureaucrats who want to leave examination or psychology.

I sincerely believe that for the New York theatre to remain relevant, all our major producing institutions should be presenting new American plays

Theatre is done largely for the love of the craft. Television makes you famous. And films immortalize you. That’s the relationship between the three.

I love the stage, I love the process of acting in theatre, but unfortunately, it doesn’t pay the bills.

Like I said, when all of that goes away and you just completely lose yourself in the fantasy of it, then that’s usually when I walk out of the theatre or turn off the television and just go: “That was brilliant!”

I don’t mind doing the green-screen stuff at all, and in fact it’s a lot like black-box theater, which I did plenty of in New York.
