Colman Domingo Quotes

From afar, I have cried watching my nation, sore with prejudice, slowly heal itself. I hurt along with America, my phantom pains only alleviated by work I do every day - art Picture Quote #1

I was nervous about doing ‘Scottsboro Boys’ because I’m not a trained dancer, and there is a lot of very athletic dancing involved Picture Quote #1

I am proud being an artist who takes risks, who would walk off a cliff artistically. I won’t settle for commercial reasons Picture Quote #1

My brothers and sister and me grew up making fun of each other, the way we’d speak or move. When we get together, everyone’s funny, quick, loud, and speaks on top of each other. It was like a great comedy school; nothing is precious Picture Quote #1

I recently did a play, Athol Fugard’s ‘Coming Home’ at Long Wharf Theatre, where I played one character throughout - I sat at a table and didn’t have any costume changes. Following one character’s arc from beginning to end is a whole different mindset Picture Quote #1

I had no inclination to perform as a kid. I was a shy child - I always had my nose in a library book. I didn’t start acting until I went to college. Once I started, it seemed to fit like a glove. I felt completely at home on stage. It was the perfect way for me to express myself, even better than writing Picture Quote #1

I hired a publicist once I got cast in ‘Passing Strange,’ and one of the first conversations we had was about how I wanted to handle talking about my sexuality. I said, ‘It’s never been an issue for me. I want to talk about my work, but if something about myself relates to my work, of course I’ll talk about it.’ Picture Quote #1

I can’t fall apart every time I mention that my mother’s gone. I actually laugh about stories or things or situations. Of course there’s a wound that will never be patched up, but I approach it with humor. Of course, I don’t overlook it and go straight for the humor, but I think we have to have humor to move forward Picture Quote #1

When you’re doing exactly what you want to do, it’s not tiring. You’ve been planting these seeds, and finally, you have a full garden in bloom; you’re like, ‘Oh, I just want to smell the flowers and play among the flowers all day.’ That’s what I’m doing. I’m playing among the flowers Picture Quote #1

Maybe what I’m trying to do is heal others. I think what we’re trying to do in theater is heal someone Picture Quote #1
