“And as for the critics, it is very rare that you get the reviews you want. I don’t think many interesting actors or good plays are every really ignored or dismissed, but critics see too many bad plays and always have to write in a hurry. If they are proud of their craft, they get more interested in their own writing style than what they are supposed to be writing about.”
