Theater Quotes

I’ve always loved musical theater. It’s a bit of a family tradition Picture Quote #1

My theater is slow and calm, yet my life is fast and hectic, going in all directions Picture Quote #1

My favorite movies are the ones that are different the second time, or where you’re constantly discovering new things. It’s not just genre movies, either, and it’s not just about twists. I saw ‘Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy’ four times in the theater before I realized it’s a love story. I love that Picture Quote #1

Field of Dreams is the only movie - and I saw it in the theater - on an afternoon when I was on location somewhere, and there were like 12 people in the theater. I was just so devastated; I couldn’t get out of my seat. And I sat and watched it a second time Picture Quote #1

I’ve always enjoyed performing. I was in figure skating before, and then I joined my first school play. Ever since that, you have not been able to get me out of the theater Picture Quote #1

In the theater you rehearse in order to do the performance. And in the movies the rehearsal and the performance are kind of the same thing. You’re figuring it out and hopefully the camera is pointed at you when you’re doing it Picture Quote #1

I just love acting. Being in theater or being in television or film, I’m really living out my destiny Picture Quote #1

I think a lot of theater actors that were great, like Walken or Glenn Close, later became film actors Picture Quote #1

I think as an actor you’re lucky to have any film take on a life of its own long after it’s left the theater Picture Quote #1

I love TV, don’t get me wrong. But with film, you’re just banging out this one product, and you’re not waiting on another script. You have your script. It’s great in that way. It’s as close to theater as you can get Picture Quote #1

The theater is a tough place. It’s not cushioned the way it is in film and television Picture Quote #1

It is possible to work out of New York on film and television and still not lose your connection to theater Picture Quote #1

I came from the theater playing leading roles, and when I started doing film and television, I felt as if I had to start from the bottom Picture Quote #1

There tends to be this hierarchy of film and television, and theater is somewhere else in its own milieu. However, as actors, yes, we love to do theater because it’s our story. Nobody can edit it, the curtain goes up, and it’s ours for two hours or three, or whatever. And we tell it Picture Quote #1

It’s a shame how a lot of actors use theater as a stepping stone to film and television work; I think it shouldn’t be treated that way. Maybe it’s narcissism or something. I think we should always go back to it. I try and do a play a year, and I think that’s really helped me Picture Quote #1

Film, theater and television always kind of scared me. I don’t ever seriously think of myself as an actor at all, and I don’t plan any film career or television career Picture Quote #1

I did enjoy theater. I actually do prefer making films and television, but it was a learning experience for me, because I got into television at 5 and film at 11, and theater was something I completely bypassed Picture Quote #1

I’m not shutting doors on myself, in any way, within theater, musical theater, TV and film Picture Quote #1

I’m a firm believer in the idea that theater excels over film and TV in its ability to let people play with poetry Picture Quote #1

For a lot of people, film is still the dream - the captive audience in the darkened theater - but I love TV. I think it’s fantastic Picture Quote #1

I had grown up working in a video store, and I’d grown up more with film than I had with theater, so I kind of felt a natural call Picture Quote #1

I come from the theater, so for me rehearsal is vital and a way of life. There are many film directors who don’t believe in it and some actors who prefer not to rehearse Picture Quote #1

I’d like to widen my education. I’d definitely like to widen my film range. I mean, I’d love to do some theater Picture Quote #1

Once I went to film school, I realized that film directing was actually much better than theater directing, because you kind of get to stay in control of it all the way through. You don’t relinquish the piece to the actors like you have to in theater; you stay in control through the very end Picture Quote #1

I’m a theater guy and a filmmaker. So when my community was thrown up in the air by the gas industry, the way I could contribute was to do something in the film world. I never thought it would be a big deal at all Picture Quote #1

I began writing for theater, and maybe because of that I’ve always thought of myself as a theater writer who does work in film sometimes Picture Quote #1

When you find theater writing like in the theater on film but it’s realistic, it doesn’t matter who the character is, you want to do it Picture Quote #1

One of the things that’s great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education, academia, the service industry, arts, publishing, theater, politics, fashion, finance, as well as movie-making Picture Quote #1
