Theatre can entertain, provoke, challenge, investigate, comfort and educate. It's arrogant of a playwright to think education is more important than anything else. Writing for the theatre does not give you permission to lecture, hector or bore.

Alistair Beaton

It seems to me, in this culture, you need to have a subsidy to do theatre, not that I put theatre above anything else.

Jamey Sheridan

Theatre has been a part of my life since before I can remember - my dad is also an actor and a director and a storyteller who lives and works in the Twin Cities; my mom is a nurse practitioner, but she also grew up doing theatre - so, it has always been a part of my experience.

Seth Numrich

I tried theatre. I played Miss Hannigan for a short run of Annie at a regional theatre. That was fun. I enjoyed it! I enjoy theatre and have so much respect for theatre actors.

Wanda Sykes

I trained in the theatre and I love the theatre. I get such a thrill seeing anything in the theatre.

There are two kinds of theatre, good and bad. Much as I should like to see theatre in America, I would rather have no theatre than bad theatre. What we must strive for is perfection and come as close to it as is humanly possible.

Margo Jones

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

'Doctor Who' was my first telly job, and before that I did a lot of theatre in education, children's theatre.

Sophie Aldred

Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.

Jane Austen

All theatre has truth, from Theatre in Education to panto to Shakespeare.

Clive Rowe

In much postmodern theatre ... the line between theatre and non-theatre is deliberately erased.

Jeremy Begbie

I used to do puppet theatre and also mime and musical theatre in Florida for competitions and festivals, which was great. I was very much involved in theatre when I was in college.
