Quote

The thing I love about live performance the most, is that the doors are closed, the lights are turned down, and the audience has to be reverential to what's happening onstage.

I'm of the opinion that it's okay to be silent, to not speak if you don't have anything to say.
Cate Blanchett
Image
That's why so many people want to play Hamlet: because it's a completely demarked role, and the actor playing it has to be prepared, through the language, to allow the audience to see into who he is.
