My absolute favorite thing is when actors mess up a line in a way that's better than what I wrote. It's the best feedback to me, their tongue knowing my play better than I do! #newplay

Oh. My. Lord. Less of the adaptation/rewrite/re-imagining/revival machine. 95% of the time it's pure profit driven nostalgia-bait and it drives me NUTS. #newplay

Oh, man. Not enough characters in the world. I am feeling inspired this week by: Maria Irene Fornes, Kaveh Akbar, Mfoniso Udofia, EM Lewis, Virginia Grise, Gabriella Tovar-Borghini, Brandi Carlile, my dad, and the moon. Among others. #Newplay

Especially when working in magical realism, I like to think of creating utopic representation. Unless the representation is being specifically excavated by the work, why can't the worlds we create be better than the one we live in? Imagining a just future provides the blueprints for one #newplay

Don't forget! Because otherwise it will just be me and HowlRound all, "So... New plays, right? Loooove watching them... reading them... supporting them... talking to myself about them for a full hour..." #newplay
