When I was 13 years old, a professional theater company in my town needed a kid actor. I auditioned, and I got the part, so for just a few weeks I became a member of the company and I met some professional actors.
Trevor Nunn

I was as happy doing theater in New York for little or no money as I am now doing television for more money. The happiness, I guess, comes out of it being a good job. The success has to do with the fact that it's a good job that will continue.
David Hyde Pierce

I've made six films since I made Secrets and Lies but I still live in London and I'd love to do theater.
Brenda Blethyn

When I owned the theater, I had the Glen Miller Orchestra. I had 20 girls singing and dancing. I had a cast of characters. It was a big group production, as well as ushers, ticket takers.
Bobby Vinton

Dance, vaudeville, drama, movies - as a child I loved everything that went on in a theater.
James Broughton

At one time musical theater, particularly in the '40s and '50s, was a big source of pop songs. That's how musical theater started, really - it was just a way of linking several pop songs for the stage.
Neil Tennant

We knew all along we were making a good show, so its success was not a surprise to me. What has surprised me is the magnitude of this show's success. More people see me now in one episode than saw me in 20 years of movies and theater!
William Petersen

If an American audience is given a serious musical theater piece that is well produced, dramatically gripping and wonderfully acted, they'll respond to it.
Carlisle Floyd

What I'd really like to do is do a film or two a year and then do theater in New York the rest of the year.
Piper Perabo

I had done a lot of plays, particularly at my own theater in LA, and it was the first time in my theatrical life where I didn't feel that my role was also to keep everybody else working hard.
Gregory Harrison

People wear shorts to the Broadway theater. There should be a law against that.
Stanley Tucci

I'm obviously very keen on the theater and I think it's inevitable that some of the orchestral and chamber pieces have got dramatic elements which might even suggest an unspecified dramatic plot of some kind or other, even though it's not in my mind at the time.
Peter Maxwell Davies

Now I'm back home, living in London, running my theater. I just want to enjoy all that.
Sam Mendes

I'm set to have my best year ever: I'm hiring some acts and there will be a show in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening. I'm going to use my theater to its fullest potential.
Mickey Gilley

With acting, it was really more of a general kind of experience of really just loving being in the theater.
Marisa Tomei

Live theater to me is much more free than the movies or television.
Eartha Kitt

Performance art can involve the audience with taste, smell and sounds not available with electronic media and not practical with conventional theater. This is due to the usually small audience.
Jack Bowman

We don't make movies for critics. I've done four movies; there's millions upon millions upon millions of people who've paid to see them. Somebody likes them. My greatest joy is to sit anonymously in a dark theater and watch it with an audience, a paying audience.
Michael Bay

I've just taken the decision that I'm going to now go full time back into the theater.
Trevor Nunn

I'm an actor, coming from New York theater.
Skeet Ulrich
