Tell me about the passion that makes the exhaustion worthwhile? I think college is a time to do as much as I possibly can with directing. The , way I see it, every chance I have to direct will only add to my experience, and will better prepare me for my future.

Is this the first musical you have di- rected? If yes, what is different/better/ worse about this as opposed to straight dramas? Actually, the one musical I have di- rected before, is also Godspell, which 1 did . my senior year in high school. So, it is nice for me to be returning to the same hii i^hH $M prefer straight plays because they are what I have more experience with.

I understand you studied in London last year, what kind of programs did you participate in and/or what experience did you get while you were there? Well, last summer I took classes through NYU/Tisch in London. Per- haps the most rewarding aspect of this program was the chance it gave me to see great theater almost every night.

What is your favorite show that you have been involved in, and was it acting or directing? Well, I have to say that without a doubt it is the production of Romeo and Juliet directed by Cosmo Fattizzo '98 my fresh- man year.

When you directed for the first time were you directing people your age? Was it a difficult transition to make them see you as an authority figure, rather than as just a peer? My first directing experience was, as i said, directing Godspell my senior year in high school. With the exception of two cast members, the cast was entirely college students. Because 1 had worked with many of them before, the transition from peer to director was an easy one.

What are your upcoming projects here at Trinity? In addition to Godspell, I am perform- ing with the Judy Dworin Performance Ensemble, in a piece entitled Donde Estas, and I am also directing/perform- ing in my-senior project, which will be performed April 9.

What are your plans for the future as far as theater abd durectuib is con- cerned, after college and in the long term? I plan to be a starving artist in New York. I am currently interviewing with producers in the city, and 1 hope to pur- sue a career in directing.
