LEBENSRAUM opens in present-day Germany as the country's Chancellor, through a spasm of nightmarish guilt over the Holocaust, invites 6 million Jews to come live in Germany with a promise of 'citizenship and full benefits' in the hopes that Germany can finally heal from its dark past. The logical progression of this artfully drawn script raises the terrifying possibility that history may repeat.

I began my work in the theatre as an actor. That was the passion that first led me to the stage as a young man. After a few years, the opportunity arose and I tried my hand at directing. I've been doing both for a long time now. Because I both act in plays and direct them, I sometimes get asked something along the lines of "Do you think of yourself as an actor or a director?" My answer is always the same: I am an actor who directs. I don't mean the answer to be flip or facetious. The fact that I was, and still remain, an actor at my core informs the way I direct a play.

Representing the Stella Adler Studio of Acting is a great honor and responsibility. Stella Adler along with the other members of the Group Theater revolutionized the American Theater scene. Stella Adler, Harold Clurman, Lee Strasberg, Bobby Lewis, Elia Kazan, Clifford Odets, Sanford Meisner, Lee J. Cobb, these names are legends to drama students and theater history buffs. And when one looks at the legacy they left behind through successive generations of students- Marlon Brando, Elaine Stritch, Warren Beatty, Estelle Parsons, Robert Deniro, James Dean, Al Pacino, Paul Newman, the list goes on and on, one begins to get a sense of the impact the Group Theater has had, not only in America, but the world.
Taking Mercy Killers to the Edinburgh Fringe was a last minute idea. I wanted to keep the show going and had been to the Fringe as a kid with the Columbus Children's Theater. It was a truly formative experience, and I always wanted to go back.
Most kids in drama school dream about working at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, and I am certainly no exception. And so there is an irony that for me, it was the achievement of this milestone, working at the Guthrie, that was the turning point for me where I decided to put my conventional career on hold and step into the unknown.
