1) What excites you most about participating in Directors JAM?

Being with the DG Jam is like finally attending a party thrown just for you; the focus is on directors and their process. And that is just such a gift. 

2) How do you personally understand the director’s role in a devising process?

I like to think of being the captain of a flying airship; its impossible but yet here we are. 

3) What do you hope to get out of your JAM experience?

I want to see Sam Tower spin her magic.
