Theater

«The theater is so endlessly fascinating because it's so accidental. It's so much like life.»
«You can throw away the privilege of acting, but that would be such a shame. The tribe has elected you to tell its story. You are the shaman/healer, that's what the storyteller is, and I think it's important for actors to appreciate that. Too often actors think it's all about them, when in reality it's all about the audience being able to recognize themselves in you. The more you pull away from the public, the less power you have on screen.»

«You need three things in the theater - the play, the actors and the audience, - and each must give something»
Author: Kenneth Haigh | About: Theater | Keywords: actors, audience, theater, the play
«Whoever becomes the head of the National Theater finds himself in a position like that of Nelson's Column-pigeons dump on you because you're there.»
Author: Peter Hall | About: Theater | Keywords: column, dump, Nelson, pigeon, pigeons, The National
«The theater needs continual reminders that there is nothing more debasing than the work of those who do well what is not worth doing at all.»
«The best of our theater is standing on tiptoe, striving to see over the shoulders of father and mother. The worst is exploiting and wallowing in the self-pity of adolescence and obsessive keyhole sexuality. The way out, as the poet says, is always through.»
