What moves me about Angels is that it is unapologetically a play. It’s passionately theatrical. You can do it with $200. You should be able to do it on the sweetest, most old-fashioned stage. There’s a Christmas pageant quality to it. The tricks are not tricks, because you see the wire, you see all of the stuff as theater magic. It has more power. We lost hold of some of the sacredness of that experience as we went to the high theatrical effects that you can achieve with lots and lots of money.
