Laugh
|
Nov 07, 2020

And I admit it: there's a rather dirty thrill when 700 people laugh at a joke you've written.

Knew
|
Nov 07, 2020

Apparently the show happens even if I'm not there. Who knew?

Mix
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's an odd mix, the life of a playwright.

Language
|
Nov 07, 2020

Writing a tribe is fun. They have their own language, their own slang; they repeat it, and it becomes part of the texture of the play. For a writer, that's thrilling. That's when my pen flies.

Mind
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't like writing with real people in mind.

Family
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was the family alien. Both my parents are quite creative, but I was... appalling... always putting on little shows. I was rather a shy child, not a natural performer, but there was a performative edge to everything I did.

Never
|
Nov 07, 2020

'Posh' is not really political. I didn't want to aim a brickbat at the system. Or to bash Old Etonians. It was always the class and privilege aspect of that world that I was most drawn to. There is something endlessly fascinating about imagining something you could never be involved in.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think a lot of playwrights have a script in their bottom drawer that hopefully no one will ever see about a bunch of young people sharing a flat and getting up to crazy stuff.

Nov 07, 2020

Your plays are always personal. You can't help seeing yourself in the serial killer you've just written. But they get less specifically personal.

Confidence
|
Nov 07, 2020

Old Etonians are the most charming people in the world. It's not just the analytic ability and the great education; there is a really easy confidence to them that draws people to them and makes their passage though the world a little easier.

Nov 07, 2020

I think it's disingenuous to believe that being born into a privileged world means you feel like you are having an easy time.

Opportunities
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's not a meritocracy until everyone starts with the same opportunities, is it?

Die
|
Nov 07, 2020

If you want, you can have a coffin made out of cardboard or wicker or papier mache. There's one like a seed pod, or you could buy one that doubles as both a bookcase and a coffin. During your life, you stand it in your living room, and then after you die, the books are taken out and your body put in their place and the whole thing buried.

Imagination
|
Nov 07, 2020

I really don't know where my interest in death comes from. Maybe I've just got a twisted imagination. The truth is, I haven't had a hugely eventful life - maybe I'm compensating in my creative life. Or maybe I'm just a bit sick.

Grieving
|
Nov 07, 2020

I am interested in the way advances in medicine and palliative care mean more people now have the opportunity to plan their own deaths, and also plan for those who are left behind. What does that do to the grieving process?

Death
|
Nov 07, 2020

Maybe if I'd had more direct contact with death, I wouldn't find it so fascinating and I wouldn't write about it so much.

Careless
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm not posh at all. I grew up in Sheffield but never managed to pick up the accent - which was careless because there'd be some cache now in being a northern playwright, but I missed out on that one.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think the interesting thing about the word 'posh' is that it is so relative; it's quite a provocative title because people have strong feelings about that word.
