I loved ‘Matilda.’ The kids are so brilliant and uninhibited. They were inspiring. Seeing them onstage, just going wild, reminded me of when I was that age. I was excited for them and completely taken by their innocence and hard work. Matthew James Thomas Read Quote
Pippin chooses love and finds a greater sense of himself at the end of all the madness. I relate to him in many ways. I have been through stuff, thought I knew best, and often been proven wrong. Matthew James Thomas Read Quote
I like building and making things. I, perhaps, would like to try my hand at directing one day. Sometimes I fancy myself as an architect – but I think I might need to go back to school for that. Matthew James Thomas Read Quote
The thing with ‘Pippin’ is not to over think it too much. If you try and overthink or plan and over-analyze – it’s like with any role really, but this one specifically – you can run into sogging wet newspaper. It’s just too exciting to do that. It’s nice to be bounced around and surprised at almost every line that comes out of your mouth. Matthew James Thomas Read Quote
You can’t be a human and a guy and not connect with Pippin… I often feel like Pippin. I come offstage sometimes like ‘Oh my God, I’ve got to do this next time! I’ve gotta go there. I’m going to make this choice.’ Matthew James Thomas Read Quote
