This series of conversations explores topics that stretch from finding the spark in their work, making a life as a director, and how they landed on this side of the table. Each director's vision is distinct, and their way of working is their own, but this series also addresses all they have in common beyond the shared title.In June 2011, Thomas Kail sat in conversation with Alex Timbers at the SDC Offices.
