When Im working with the directors as theyre thinking about what kind of ideas they want to pitch, we start from a really personal place. I ask, What matters to you? What are some challenges youve faced? What are the relationships for you that are the most fraught or have had the most healing? The audience may never know how personal it is. - Mary Coleman
