- The first thing that inspired me in theatre...
- I was never that in love with theatre until I directed something - and then I thought this is what I want to do. But before that... when I was at school in After Magritte - hearing the audience laugh - and thinking this is for me.
- My favourite theatre something is...
- Laughter and the buzz of an excited audience as they leave a great show.
- The thing that annoys me about our industry...
- Pretentious dull theatre and money wasted on admin and audience development crap.
