" I am cut to the brains: October 2026

   My Credo
To me,  theatre  and  film  without a lucid, exciting, urgent and passionate vision is like a story without a premise: rudderless and ultimately insignificant. 

The kind of work I believe in must educate and enlighten, inspire and motivate, excite and enthrall.
 

I think we can rekindle dreams lost by our older generation and reshape and reawaken our young adults whose dreams have been obscured or put aside, but who yearn inwardly for inspiration.  We must educate and motivate them so that they, in turn, can help us to teach the young.
 

Perhaps we will only reach a relative minority but, my God, what a minority it would be: thinking, feeling, striving and inspired human beings.  The kind of people, both young and old, who could reshape the world.
