Audiences Quotes

Michael Haneke

Good, Money, Important

What you want is the thing that critics love and audiences love, but that's the hardest thing to do.
Paul Feig

The white audiences thought I was white, my features being what they are, and at every performance I'd have to take off my gloves to prove I was a spade.
Ethel Waters

Thought, Off, White

Well, the coffeehouse audiences never know what they're going to get, and all the comics are different, as opposed to when you go to a club, and they're pretty much all telling jokes with set-ups and punchlines. Coffeehouse audiences are the most forgiving: They really listen, which is the best part.
Kathy Griffin

Best, Different, Pretty

Theatre, when it is at its best, takes a lot of beating - the live experience and the shared collective experience of live storytelling is really special when it is good. Particularly here in New York because the audiences are amazing, very vocal and very engaged, and that makes theatre very exciting.
Dan Stevens

Good, Best, Experience

The Broadway audiences are very vocal and seem very engaged. For certain shows, especially with a show like 'The Heiress,' the audience's reactions sound like 'The Jerry Springer Show' sometimes. That seems to be a very New York thing. Oh, there's also the entrance round of applause here, which we don't get too much in London.
Dan Stevens

Sometimes, Here, Show

London audiences are tricky, too. They don't laugh as much as the Northern audiences because, and I hate to say this, they are a bit cleverer normally, and they are picking up on all the little details and listening more carefully.
Steve Coogan

Hate, Laugh, Bit

Audiences don't ever disappoint me, in the sense that movies I feel really good about, they usually feel really good about too.
Greg Kinnear

Good, Movies, Sense

Robert Carlyle

Life, Keep, Off

If you create a good story that has a lot of story value... I think audiences like that. It's why they stick with the same TV show over and over.
Robert Rodriguez

Good, Why, Same

Audiences in London called me the girl with the black cherry eyes.
Maureen O'Hara

Girl, Black, Eyes

Acting is trying to be absolutely truthful; to get audiences to believe that you are a dean, when, actually, not only are you not the dean, but if you walked into the building they'd probably throw you out. That's very hard.
Wallace Shawn

Hard, Trying, Acting

You've got to have a sense of different audiences. I'm a kind of performer manque - I come from a long line of failed actors!
Terry Eagleton

Long, Different, Sense

I would never inflict my bassoon on anybody really other than the long suffering audiences that come to the concerts of The Really Terrible Orchestra; which actually is really terrible.
Alexander McCall Smith

Long, Suffering, Actually

Since the goal of my programs is to show audiences how humor can both help them heal as well as deal with not-so-funny stuff, I decided to discuss the events of the previous week, the pain all of us were feeling, and how humor and some laughter might be beneficial.
Allen Klein

Humor, Pain, Laughter

I don't make movies because I think audiences will want to go see them.
Jerry Bruckheimer

Van Morrison

Down, America, Play

I feel like the rap metal at the end of the 1990s destroyed rock music for everybody and suddenly everybody felt like they had to apologise for being in rock bands. People suddenly felt bad about wanting to reach massive audiences and the sense of theatre, that we have in our live show, became something to avoid.
Nate Ruess

Music, Rock, Live

If you start writing to an audience you're talking down to them. I've never written for any age group, I just write character. If you can capture that you'll get the audiences, and it will be a wide range, as it is for 'Twilight,' it's a pretty wide range.
Melissa Rosenberg

Age, Character, Writing

Jet Li

Bad, Different, Try

I want to do what I want when I want to do it not be dictated to by audiences.
Dario Argento

Dario Argento

Work, History, Thought

Let's put it this way: art house theaters are vanishing. They have almost disappeared completely, and that means there's a shift in what audiences want to see. And they have to be aware of that and be realistic. It's as simple as that.
Werner Herzog

Art, Simple, Put

There are certainly laws and elements that make a film more accessible to mainstream audiences. If you've got Tom Cruise as a strongman, I'm sure it would have larger audiences, but it wouldn't have the same substance.
Werner Herzog

Same, Film, Sure
