I’ve never been to a will reading before.

You’d think it’d be like a game show, but think of a community theatre production of a tax return.

My first show was _Barefoot in the Park_ , which was an absolute smash, but my production on the stage of _Backdraft_ was what really got them excited. This whole idea of ‘In Your Face’ theatre really affected them. The conceptualization, the whole abstraction, the _obtuseness_ of this production to me was what was interesting. I wanted the audience to feel the heat from the fire—the fear—because people don’t like fire, poked, _poked_ in their noses. You know, when you get a cinder from a barbeque right on the end of your nose, and you kind of make that face, you know? That’s not a good thing. And I wanted them to have the sense memory of that. So during the show I had someone burn newspapers and send it through the vents in the theatre. And well, they freaked out, and 'course the fire marshall came over, and they shut us down for a couple of days.
