Highlights
04:43 Theater has a large role to play in that, to have us introduced to things that we normally wouldn’t be exposed to otherwise.
07:37 We’re doing this work so that we can make sure that not only people are welcomed in our theaters but that they’re engaged and they’re active in purpose and that we’re seeking justice, and we’re seeking the full human experience for everybody.
13:13 You’re gonna constantly be learning and you have to be open to getting feedback. That’s part of the process.
17:27 It’s funny how as a father, I’m learning to see the world through the eyes of my son for the first time and what he is engrossed by and what he finds interesting.
22:46 I think the best learning comes from people and your circle that you already have a really good trust in.
