Quote of the Month

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The director has a basic fear of the author. After all, he has created the character and knows what he expects from them. But a director has to justify his existence and this results in hostility.

From “Songwriting a 3-Way Job” by Jerry Gaghan. Philadelphia Daily News, March 20, 1961, during the pre-Broadway Philadelphia tryout of Yip’s penultimate Broadway musical, The Happiest Girl in the World.
