   What does Lecompte do in Wooster Group?

   • LeCompte goes to every performance of every Wooster Group play. She folds herself into an aisle seat, next to whatever assistant is logging her complaints or her satisfactions, and tries to pretend that no one will recognize her, though of course by now some do. She is an avid eavesdropper.

   How does Lecompte work?

   • LeCompte’s projects often begin this way: someone in the group, not necessarily her, will come in with a text, or have an idea, and if it pleases LeCompte the shape of a play slowly begins to emerge. She will assemble her players and call in her designers and technicians and engineers.

   Why did Lecompte say 'hamlet'?

   • LeCompte, who had started by saying, in effect, “Forget the words!,” decided that “Hamlet” was the words. They became the telling surface, the artifice and style that deepens. Shakespeare had won the day, but on her terms. “You see, it’s not the character; it’s the language,” she told me, the last time we talked about the play.
