I had seen 'Pillowman' in London and loved it. Being part of something that I, as an audience member, would like to be part of was one of the greatest experiences I've ever had.

I like a movie that the audience actively has to participate in, and not just casually observe. Whatever my part in it, just as an audience member, I find that exciting.

In all my years of performing, no audience member has ever actually assaulted me. I consider this to be the singular triumph of my performing career.

What I always loved about theater is that that's an experience that a company of actors just sinks itself into for weeks, and you really get to work on the material, and by the time you're in front of an audience, you really own it.

I was an audience member before I'm a filmmaker. All I've tried to do as a filmmaker was to make movies I want to see.

It's more interesting for me as an audience member to see a movie about a loser.
