Theatre Quotes

It’s quite rare for a group of people to come together for a live event that isn’t loud music. A live event that enables thinking to take place, to take place collectively. It’s unique to theatre. It’s a quality I never want to see diminished Picture Quote #1

As a kid, we had one television channel and a sad little roller rink. And there was not much else to do. So I used my imagination all of the time growing up. That’s the main way I played. When we moved and I went to high school, I did my first play, and I was completely addicted to theatre. It felt like home; it felt natural Picture Quote #1

What happens a lot in film, though not so much in the theatre, is that you get stroked and sort of massaged, like a little guinea pig Picture Quote #1

The theatre starts every night at half past seven, and I like the rhythm of going to the theatre, parking the car, going to the stage door; I’ve grown up with all of that. I’d love to do more theatre - I mean, I shouldn’t be telling the world that I can’t remember lines any more, but I find it more and more difficult, so I don’t know Picture Quote #1

I’m a theatre person, that’s who I am. I’m happy to make sojourns into the world of movies but I’m basically a theatre director that potters off and does a couple of movies Picture Quote #1

I want you to feel happy and enjoy the theatre of my life the way that I do. No matter what happens with my music and wherever I go - that heart of that glamorous girl in New York will never be gone Picture Quote #1

I think it’s good for an actor to bounce between stuff on camera and stuff in theatre. If I could do half and half every year I would be a very, very happy man Picture Quote #1

Do you know what makes a movie work? Moments. Give the audience half a dozen moments they can remember, and they’ll leave the theatre happy Picture Quote #1

I took theatre and stuff in college, then I took a bunch of different acting classes here in L.A. Sometimes when I have a hard audition, I’ll call my acting coach and he’ll come help me. I actually get more nervous in acting class than I do at an actual audition. It’s actually a really great way to get over your nerves Picture Quote #1

Very hard to get an audience. So if you’re going to fill the theatre, you can’t just rely on old stuff Picture Quote #1

I hate the idea of theatre just being an evening pastime. It should be emotionally and intellectually demanding. I love football. The level of analysis that you listen to on the terraces is astonishing. If people did that in the theatre... but they don’t. They expect to sit back and not participate Picture Quote #1

I’ve made a point of trying not to play the same part and of moving between theatre and film and TV. The idea is that by the time you come back, you have been away for a year, and people have forgotten you. If you like having time off, which I do, that’s a good career strategy. Or at least, it’s my strategy to keep my head together Picture Quote #1

My interest in theatre started in high school, mostly because my dean forced me to do it. I was creating trouble in the hallways, so he demanded that I do something with my spare time Picture Quote #1
