Quote by Graham Shiels

“Seeing babies and little children smile or even just be inquisitive about a bottle cap isnpires me. Watching a great performance, particularly live or in the moment. My favorite actor at the moment is the three-time Tony Award-winning Mark Rylance. Makes me work to be better.”

It was exhilarating to listen to all the funny lines the writers would come up with on the spot and then get to play them immediately.”
