No, I'm not going to turn Weeded Out into a stage play. I'm writing a book, and that is simply the reality. I'm not interested in what you think it might be: write your own play. Again, not a theatre kid, and the play you want is precisely the reason that I'm not.

Again, I'm feuding with Red Scare, and that extends to the entire theatre community. The reason is the same: instead of communicating plainly, you keep on trying to use your connections in the media or politics to feel me out/threaten me. Have the guts to see me as a human being and to communicate accordingly.

I do see Cass as a person, but I see her as a shallow, venal person that wants what she wants and barely gives a shit about everyone else.


That's what really ticks me off. At least I'm open about my selfishness. They've kept on dressing it up as 'the community needs this film' but the reality is that the community was very satisfied with The Dakumentary and AMPP. Red Scare needed me to triumphantly return to NY and show off how great they are.
