Philip Kan Gotanda

“To me, it’s always been a matter of: Do your homework and be committed to the extent that you can capture that world. I think I’m open.”

“To me the play is never just the play but it’s the whole journey to it.”

“The play is my gut's response to stories that have to do with my own bloodline. I think it is a great luxury and adventure to be able to dive into one's own history, one's own lineage, psychology and story, and illumine and at the same time fictionalize it.”
