Rowling to tell a story from that world that no one yet knows - it's exhilarating.

Work Opportunity Child Theatre World

Some actors just have a quality, a way of combining music and character and story, where everything just falls into place.

Music Character Quality Story Place

I've never understood why anyone would want to join the army, but that's irrelevant. The fact of the matter is that, as long as we go on voting in governments who are prepared to take troops into an illegal war, that army is a necessity.

War Voting Army Long Go Want

Only when you don't impose things on it do you get real political theatre.

Theatre Political You Real Things
