I came up in comics doing lots of DIY self-published stuff, producing my own books, handling all the details of creation and production. And theatre is something that's really attractive to me, as it's a similarly accessible form - it has a lot of the same sort of down-and dirty DIY spirit, where you can make a lot with a little.

I'm a bad liar I don't know what to say backstage.

Drama assumes an order. If only so that it might have - by disrupting that order - a way of surprising.
Vaclav Havel

The object is freedom.

My mother was working on her college degree throughout my childhood, and being the youngest in the family, that meant being dragged to a lot of her classes. She majored in playwriting, so I was exposed to theatre from a very young age, and it was just the most magical world to me.

I grew up performing in theatre.

When I play, I feel like in a theatre, why should I look ugly then, because I'm a tennis player?

When the sun sets beautifully, other beauties rise. Nature is a theatre when one great player leaves the scene, another great player immediately enters. The play always continues excellently.

Movies are not scripts - movies are films they're not books, they're not the theatre.
Nicolas Roeg

Acting is half shame, half glory. Shame at exhibiting yourself, glory when you can forget yourself.
John Gielgud

You can only do so much theatre.

People ask me if I ever feel outside the Hollywood loop, and I never do, because both of us do a lot of theatre, so it's great for New York and it's also half-way between Europe and the west coast, so it's the best of both worlds.

I believe in the American theatre. I believe in its power to inform about the human condition, its power to heal ... its power to uncover the truths we wrestle from uncertain and sometimes unyielding realities.
August Wilson

I like the detail work of telling a story in small pieces, as is done in movie-making, and also the long leap of faith needed to see a theatre performance through each night. Both require focus and self-discipline.
Viggo Mortensen

There's a great charm in theatre I enjoyed doing it for twelve years and did lots of plays. At this chapter of my life, I am a cinema actor, and I would like to continue to be so, and at some point I would return to the theatre.

I grew up overseas in Indonesia, and my school had a great art, music, and theatre program.

Anarchy loves theatre. That's the whole point. People forget that. You have to laugh at the devil, not fight him. They'll always have more guns, they'll always have more bombs that go off with a bigger bang. No matter how revolting you become they'll always be willing to be more revolting to you. They've had so much more practice.

The difference between a theatre with and without an audience is enormous. There is a palpable, critical energy created by the presence of the audience.

I do believe that there are African Americans who have thick accents. My mom has a thick accent my relatives have thick accents. But sometimes you have to adjust when you go into the world of film, TV, theatre, in order to make it accessible to people.

We have freedom of speech, but you got to watch what you say.

The audience is the most revered member of the theater. Without an audience, there is no theater. Everything done is ultimately for the enjoyment of the audience. They are our guests, fellow players, and the last spoke in the wheel which can then begin to roll. They make the performance meaningful.

Class I to XII wasn't much help I was always a mediocre student. But when I pursued higher education and studied economics with theatre or psychology with science fiction, I got a whole new world view.

On the one hand, young theatre directors were coming to television theatre, because they wanted to get closer to the cinema, despite having studied and worked for the theatre.
Andrzej Wajda

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