  Actors Quotes
• "Well, actors get very frustrated with giving control to other people. They have their own ideas and wants for their characters. Warren Beatty once told me that he thought actors ended up directing out of frustration. If you have a strong sense of how to communicate a film, you should direct. The problem is that it is a huge commitment. I'd rather direct a play than a film due to the time. A movie can tie you up for a year or more."

  Actors Quotes
• "Dan has the wonderful ability to get actors to trust their instincts and to surrender to the organic truth of the moment. This is one of the qualities that make Dan such a fine acting teacher. It also serves to make every show he directs exciting, spontaneous and riveting. He has the unfailing ability to seek and find an actor's hidden strengths and reserves of talent; assets the actor might not even know he or she has. Dan brings out the best in everyone he teaches and directs. We have worked together on a number of occasions, and I look forward to the next time. Dan LaMorte is a man of the theater and a pleasure to work with. He has terrific vision, boundless energy and would be a welcome addition to any theatrical endeavor."
