Writing a novel is actually searching for victims. As I write I keep looking for casualties. The stories uncover the casualties.

I feel like L.A. is more of a showcase, and Chicago is a pure comedy scene where you're doing comedy for comedy. You're doing comedy actually for the audience that's there.
When I was growing up, I was really into 'Rent' and I actually slept on the street in New York all night to get to sit in the first few rows for it.

Oskar Schindler: Stern, if this factory ever produces a shell that can actually be fired, I'll be very unhappy.
I love plays. Even bad ones. I like the fact that actual live, breathing people are standing before you in tense situations that you are not personally responsible for.
