There were wonderful moments when I was singing for the first time in the Olympia Theatre and I was pregnant with my son, which was very, very strange for a singer.
Nana Mouskouri

The theatre only knows what it's doing next week, not like the opera, where they say: What are we going to do in five years' time? A completely different attitude.
Harrison Birtwistle

Theatre demands different muscles and different aspects of one's personality.
Victor Garber

Whether it was working on theatre sets or stage lighting, I didn't realize most all of the skills I was exposed to were going to come in handy later on when I became a designer.
Douglas Wilson

What draws me to the theatre, and what appealed to me about Too Much Light, is that you have no idea what's going to happen. That's the most exciting part of theatre, it's never the same. If it were, it would be like watching a movie.
Lusia Strus

The Greeks already understood that there was more interest in portraying an unusual character than a usual character - that is the purpose of films and theatre.
Isabelle Huppert

All of a sudden Kevin told me that the movie got bought and was gonna be shown in a movie theatre. I was shocked. I was psyched. It was just weird.
Jason Mewes

The real thing is, you should be seeing these plays in the Theatre. That's what they were written for. That's where the enjoyment is. Studying them is no enjoyment whatsoever.
Tony Randall

I think theatre helped, only because it was acting experience. I got to work with a lot of directors.
James Denton

Films take up so much time, and with theatre, you do have to plan a period of time that you can be free.

Then I heard this genius teacher Stella Adler - I recommend you read anything you might find about her and if you have anyone interested in theatre, you get them one of her books.
Harvey Keitel

From there I did a one year theatre acting course in Fife, and then three years of drama school in London.
Ewan McGregor

I just loved being in the theatre with all those crazy, creative people.
Kristin Davis

For me, making films is like being on vacation, it's a nice walk. But theatre is like mountaineering. You never know whether you're going to fall off or make it to the top.
Isabelle Huppert

When the cinematograph first made its appearance, we were told that the days of the ordinary theatre were numbered.
Ivor Novello

I tell my children to avoid theatre and go into cinema and TV.
Peter O'Toole

My first interest was always music, and somehow that channelled itself into films and acting. I don't know what the natural transition of it was. I mean I acted a little bit when I was young and like any kid would in a community theatre.
Andy Garcia

Television theatre, as is implied in its name, should rely on adaptations of scripts written for the theatre.
Andrzej Wajda

My real training as an actor was when I started doing theatre.
Steve Buscemi

My operas and my theatre works are very formal pieces.
