Ryan is adamant about his belief that performers are never "finished" with their work; there will always be more learning, analyzing, and assimilating. To Ryan, theatre and film allow us to better understand each other by creating empathy through story-telling. ​It is not only a basic human right, but also a privilege, to make sure the world hears good stories. 

"The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless.”
