Comedies are deceptively hard to write … tragedy affects people similarly, but what makes someone laugh is as varied and complex as … people. Characters in a play should be as vibrant and complicated as the audience. I love plays that are fresh. That surprise! Plays should dare to be thoughtful, human, and playful. I love taking that dare. (And I hope you do too.)
