Theater Quotes

When you go to the movie theater and the opening of this movie and you see the kids just cracking up with a character you are giving your voice to, you get goose bumps. It’s so beautiful Picture Quote #1

The artist doesn’t have to suffer to show suffering. Have it on the screen but have the people come out of the theater into a world of peace, of a beautiful world. They don’t have to suffer in their lives Picture Quote #1

I used to teach acting in a maximum security men’s prison. I worked with guys with the most dysfunctional behavior problems. I probably learned more there than from my prestigious theater degree Picture Quote #1

Being able to act for a living is a blessing. I have a great theater company that’s almost 40 years old Picture Quote #1

Theater is a space where you cross over from everyday life, because there are real people in that moment moving in front of you - you’re being invited to believe in a story and cross that bridge Picture Quote #1

A theater is being given over to market forces, which means that a whole generation that should be able to do theater as well as see it is being completely deprived Picture Quote #1

I love doing theater so much - being in front of an audience and seeing how a character grows and develops with every performance Picture Quote #1

I’ll eventually go back to theater because the feeling of being on stage where you have the audience right there, you can’t replace that with anything Picture Quote #1

I have more pet peeves than anybody: people talking in the movie theater, people eating in the movie theater loudly, people being rude, people making noise when you’re supposed to be asleep, like drilling noises outside. I could be here all day Picture Quote #1

I don’t like being away from theater that long. The muscles get atrophied if you don’t exercise them Picture Quote #1

The joy of my career is I’ve been very blessed to be able to be an actor in major films, television, theater, and also British radio. In fact, my dream as an actor when I started out was to be able to work in all the media. Thankfully, that’s what I’m being given to do Picture Quote #1

My dad was very religious growing up and a little bit closed minded, and I think me being in the theater, two of my three sisters are dancers, so being in the arts world has changed and opened him up in a lot of ways Picture Quote #1

Everyone has those times when you feel like you don’t fit in. Everyone struggles to a certain extent with being cool and popular, but I never really let it affect me. I played sports and did theater, and school was really important to me. I had fun in high school Picture Quote #1

I have never directed anything for the stage. I studied for three years in the theater, and it was a very, very scary experience to direct live, being so vulnerable without the possibility to control things, to be so exposed Picture Quote #1

Although I’m perceived as very optimistic and upbeat, it comes out of being the opposite of that - feeling isolated or lonely, looking for meaning and the kinds of things that ease that suffering in life, and finding them in large-scale social interaction, like theater and games Picture Quote #1

I’ve always loved film, and since I knew I probably couldn’t be a cowboy or a spy in real life, I thought I’d play one in a movie! I started doing theater in middle school and tested for ‘Victorious’ before being in an episode of ‘iCarly.’ Picture Quote #1

When I was a little girl, the only real form of entertainment I was exposed to was theater, being raised in St. Louis, and I still love theater, and I think sitcoms are similar to that, in there’s a live audience, and you know, I definitely like the comedy of it, too. I like to make people laugh, and I definitely think laughter is healing Picture Quote #1

Being an actress wasn’t realistic. I knew that I was going to have to do it in a way that would speak to my parents. So I went to NYU Tisch School of the Arts for theater, and I studied at the conservatory Picture Quote #1

Being on film is forever. Television, as well, just lives on and on and on, which is really exciting. But then with theater, it’s like an experience. You have to be there that one special night that was like that to see that one performance that was really remarkable. It’s more intimate as well. So I like them both Picture Quote #1

I liked being in a smaller theater. I love doing shows of all sizes, but sometimes it’s nice to be in a smaller space and to strip away some of the music so that you can be a little less than larger-than-life; you can be a little more naturalistic Picture Quote #1

I am a big theater fan. It’s mostly just being pretentious, I think, and trying to look smart Picture Quote #1

I still get called ‘a stick of dynamite’ or ‘pint-sized dynamo,’ stuff like that. Actually, I was too busy to notice there was anything unusual about being a woman director until the early 1980s, when I looked around the professional theater and realized there weren’t many of us. You have to make more of a case for yourself than any man Picture Quote #1

One of the skills you have to master in theater is the ability to make the audience believe that things that aren’t there are there - just like when you’re acting against CGI. Also, in a theater, the people in the back row can’t see the whites of your eyes. Or your lips moving as you deliver dialogue Picture Quote #1

If I get a note on my script or my films, what I say to a studio executive is that, ‘You know, this is the film of my legacy, and I never want to be sitting in a theater looking up on the screen and seeing something that I don’t believe in.’ I will never do that Picture Quote #1

A lot of the best acting training I had was in junior high and high school. We had very demanding directors and did real plays. You put our plays up against any theater troupe of any age, and they usually did pretty damn well Picture Quote #1

I started off doing plays as a theater actor. But I never thought of it in terms of it leading anywhere. I was just trying to be the best actor that I could be in the context of what I was doing Picture Quote #1

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’ is without a doubt the best film we are ever likely to see on the subject - unless there is a sequel, which is unlikely, because at the end, the Lincolns are on their way to the theater Picture Quote #1
