ReVamp: What drew you to write 12 Chairs?
John O'Hara: The death of my mother was the impetus for writing 12 CHAIRS. The most memorable times with her were the simplest moments. ReVamp: What do you hope audiences get out of seeing 12 Chairs? John O'Hara: I hope they see their own mother--and if they can, they leave the theater and call her--just to say hello. ReVamp: What does the relationship between a mother and a daughter mean to you? John O'Hara: The relationship between a mother and daughter seems to be eternally joyful and frustrating in the cyclical nature of life and its journey. |
