“I want to thank the ushers and the front of house staff who see me walking in every day looking like I’ve just been run over by a truck, and see me walk out somehow looking even worse,” Jeremy joked.
“Sam [Gold] and Amy [Herzog], you guys, thank you. This is crazy. Sam, thank you for being everything an actor could hope for and a director and for bringing new meaning to the term ‘Ice Bucket Challenge,’” he continued.
Jeremy said, “Amy, for your masterful work on this play. The last time I did a play of yours I met Emma, my wife, who I now have three beautiful children with. And now … real quick. This play is a cry from the heart and the next rotation to face up to the difficult truths that are staring us all down right now. It’s been a privilege to give its warning and its hope to audiences. … Mom and Dad, thank you for allowing me to imagine.”
