With three shows currently in production, San Jose native Jeffrey Lo might seem like an in-demand playwright, but he actually gets more opportunities as a director. 🎭 That’s one of the reasons Lo fears he’s a better director than playwright. The other reason: As a playwright, “I always go in super scared, and I have no idea how the audience is going to react. When I’ve directed a show, 99% of the time, I’m pretty sure I know.” Still, his approach to directing is humble. “Your job as the director is not to know how to do everything,” he said. “Your job as a director is to know the play well enough to identify when someone else has a better idea.” Learn more about the prolific South Bay artist, and where you can watch his plays now, at the link in bio (✍️: @lilyjaniak / 📷: Paul Kuroda ~ Special to The Chronicle ~ May 18, 2022)
