I regard this production as the definitive version . For the time being. I think so. Doing TV comedy some of it was written at the last minute or was improved on the night. The same with stand-up.
Theatre is a live art and it s exciting to keep it live.
I ve come to realise that rewriting is actually my working method. That said, a part of me dreams of presenting the finished play on the first day of rehearsals and not having to change a word. Maybe one day. Closer has been garlanded with a variety of awards including Best Play and Best Comedy. I don't know.
