Long walks and nights blasting rock music usually lead to an inspiration. I came up with the idea for my last play, "Or Forever," when I was walking home at 2 am, listening to Fleetwood Mack through my headphones. In the middle of the street, I stopped myself and thought, "You've got to stop doing this. Someone's going to mug you." And then I thought, "Well great, if someone tries, maybe I can ask him out on a date! I haven't had one in a few weeks." Sure enough, that scenario became the opening scene in my play, and one of my favorites that I've ever written! |
