beckett directing exciting fan huge rush since sublime theater works
I've been a huge fan of his since I started directing. For me, directing Beckett has the same rush I had when I was directing Shakespeare. It is sublime material, and when it works it is so powerful. It's some of the most exciting theater I've ever been part of.
beckett differ emotional encourage far flat life personally
I may differ from other Beckett directors, but I do think there is an emotional life to the characters. I know that Beckett and a lot of Beckett actors feel that they must be very flat and far more technical; I personally encourage actors to invest.
accident beckett buster comedy costello influenced keaton physical sort
I think Beckett was influenced by those clowns, Buster Keaton, Abbott and Costello ... by that sort of physical comedy. I don't think it was an accident that they had Buster Keaton in his film.
