God help us if we ever take the theater out of the auction business or anything else. It would be an awfully boring world Picture Quote #1

As I’ve gotten older and I’ve watched people in productions, I go to the theater when I go back to London and see friends in Broadway, I think maybe there might come a time here to get back up there and prove oneself. It’s just an itch; it’s a nagging itch to go back there Picture Quote #1

You go where you think it’s good for your work and your soul to go. I need to go someplace where I am reminded about why I wanted to act in the first place, and for me, that’s the theater Picture Quote #1

All good performance pieces have some philosophical validity. That’s the difference between mere theater and performance art Picture Quote #1

Get in theater, really work your craft. Get really, really good so that when people say your name, your name is associated with quality, with integrity Picture Quote #1

I always think if it’s a good story, the audience can’t wait to run out of the theater and go tweet somebody with the gist of a story, in a nutshell, almost, because it was that interesting Picture Quote #1

I only worked theater jobs, but they were all really silly when I first graduated. I was a line monitor at ‘Spamalot,’ which means I got there at 8 A.M. and told people how much the tickets were for standing room. I was an NYU Medical School fake patient, to teach doctors how to talk to patients Picture Quote #1

The theater is like a faithful wife. The film is the great adventure - the costly, exacting mistress Picture Quote #1

My sister and I used to act as maids and waitresses at my great aunt and uncle’s cocktail parties, which were very much sort of retired, minor stars of the Yiddish theater and the Yiddish opera Picture Quote #1

In the evening, since I have a lot of friends in theater, we might take in a Deaf West production in North Hollywood, or, since I’m a member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, they have screenings that are really great Picture Quote #1

Theater is just so much more satisfying than film or television just because you deliver the whole thing from start to finish in one evening, and you can tell if people have enjoyed it or not.

When I was a kid, they bussed us down to a screening of ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ in an old theater, and it was just a great experience Picture Quote #1

To me idealized characters are so boring to play, especially having grown up in the classical theater. That’s a great experience, but as a woman, especially, you’ve played a lot of idealized characters. So when you’ve got someone who has weaknesses as well as strengths, that’s interesting Picture Quote #1

There’s no greater feeling than people coming up to me and going, Man, my father was dying, and we went to see Rush Hour, and it was the greatest night we had in years together. We sat in that theater and we laughed for two hours without stopping. That was just a great memory that I had before my father died Picture Quote #1

Bangladesh is a world of metaphor, of high and low theater, of great poetry and music. You talk to a rice farmer and you find a poet. You get to know a sweeper of the streets and you find a remarkable singer Picture Quote #1

Ingmar Bergman had a great sense of humor, and he had a very special, characteristic laugh that you always recognized - if he went to watch a theater show, ‘Ah! He is here tonight.’ Picture Quote #1

All the green-screen stuff - all the special effects stuff - I shot right there in my house, in the basement in my theater room. Picture Quote #1

In the theater, when people hear that you’re writing a play, they want to know what it’s all about, whether there’s a role for them. You write it fairly quickly, and it becomes a group activity before you’re really ready to have company Picture Quote #1

In my experience in series TV, if you have a good crew and a great cast, it’s going to be a great group - similar to the theater where it’s a bunch of people who are really talented and go to work each day and challenge each other, and if you are lucky enough to get a hit then it’s five or six or seven years of this kind of work Picture Quote #1

Cincinnatians support a symphony, an opera, a ballet, museums, many galleries and theater groups Picture Quote #1
