84 Quotes by Adam Rapp

When it's just a few scenes and a couple of actors behaving in a room, I feel very confident with that.

I think I'm a little more daunted by when the machinery of the play is really huge.

I don't put big concepts on my work, and it's all often about keeping actors in a room together and not letting them leave.

I think, for me, when I direct my own work it's just an extension of the authorship.

What I've learned in the last few years is that I am merely a storyteller.

I feel that I am just a storyteller, and whether I am wearing the director hat or the playwright hat, it doesn't matter.

The rooms I tend to be in are pretty democratic and the best idea wins.

I think auditioning can be very reductive and I just hate how actors work really hard and most of them aren't going to get the job, and I hate putting them through that.

I feel that I'd rather know an actors' work, or have an instinct about them and sit down and have coffee with them, or I'll see them in something and I'll see if I can get along with them in some way, shape, or form.
