A play is a blueprint I deliver into the hands of actors
to create an emotional truth through the expression of
the body's language with the dialogue.
An actor on stage saying he is in love means nothing
without the body's expression to tell the truth. In life I
believe our words sometimes matter the least.
What is profound is what is understood from the expres-
sion of the body's language. I don't believe the body can
lie.
I believe the words we speak struggle to find truth, the
effort of my words are sometimes to make you think
what I need you to believe.
But from someone's posture, the tilt of their head, the
narrowing or widening of their eyes, the slope of a
woman's shoulders— I always profoundly believe and
trust instinctively to tell me the truth. It is also something
I think we are frightened of, because we don't know what
to do with what we sense.
But it's simple, sometimes we know we should run for
our lives, and sometimes we know we should take some-
one's hand because it is impossible for them to harm us.
What we should learn from life is not to hesitate. |
