pjthompson"I awoke this morning and attacked my play with a vengeance. A stabbing need to create something out of this madness. To stand art up in the face of it. Maybe it's a redemptive act. Maybe it's this belief in the power of art to construct, to inform us of the nobility of our humanity, to bring us closer to our kinship with the gods, and, armed and armored thus, through will and daring, bring about an increase in our humanity."
