Theatrical Quotes

I think that big, sort of theatrical relaunches tend to set you up for failure and hype Picture Quote #1

Black Books adheres to a more old fashioned, traditional sitcom format, which I think works, because in its own way, it’s quite theatrical Picture Quote #1

My sister and I created a show called ‘The Real Life Brady Bunch,’ which was sort of a theatrical sensation that got us attention in L.A. and New York Picture Quote #1

And as a filmmaker, I’m trying to unhook myself from this idea that unless you have a brilliant, long, enormously lucrative theatrical run, that your movie somehow failed. And I don’t believe that Picture Quote #1

I’m not really a ‘puppet’ person in particular; I think they are very theatrical, and I’ve found different uses for them in shows, but my true interest is in writing Broadway musicals Picture Quote #1

I saw ‘Six Degrees of Separation’ because my brother was in it. It was a watershed experience. It was theatrical and scary, and New York functioned like a character. John Guare became a hero for me Picture Quote #1

A theatrical on a tight budget really only becomes about generating critical reviews for you and your film, not revenue Picture Quote #1

Growing up, I would have to say I loved ‘Peter Pan’ because I was fascinated by Captain Hook; I was fascinated by Hans Conried, who was an actor on screen and also a theatrical and television actor Picture Quote #1

It is up to the public to stop attending these theatrical, and aquatic shows, and circuses with wild animals. The rhetoric about how the animals are happy and well cared for are lies. Don’t be swayed by them. The money behind these shows is huge; there is nothing good about them Picture Quote #1

The Cause of God is not a theatrical display that is presented every hour, of which some new diversion may be asked for every day. If it were thus, the Cause of God would become mere child’s play Picture Quote #1

I’m not religious, but I’ve always been attracted to the rituals of religion; as a kid, Sunday church was the closest thing I had to an interactive, theatrical experience Picture Quote #1

I deliberately look for colorful people. They’re very right for theatre. Theatre has to be theatrical. If you can get color into the accountant, you’ve got something. Write the whole thing first and then say he’s an accountant. That’s a very wacky accountant, but so what? Theatricality feeds and challenges the actor, the director, and the designers Picture Quote #1

Film is a much lonelier process than theatre. You really don’t have any rehearsal time in film. You don’t shape it together... with theatre, there is a complete kind of family atmosphere. The sociable side of this business is the theatrical side, it really isn’t the film side Picture Quote #1

Once I go on stage, the atmosphere is totally theatrical. The greater the illusion, the greater the intensity of the excitement it creates Picture Quote #1

Whether for good or evil, it is sadly inevitable that all political leadership requires the artifices of theatrical illusion. In the politics of a democracy, the shortest distance between two points is often a crooked line Picture Quote #1

There is, perhaps, no more dangerous man in the world than the man with the sensibilities of an artist but without creative talent. With luck such men make wonderful theatrical impresarios and interior decorators, or else they become mass murderers or critics Picture Quote #1

What appealed to me about ‘The Loved Ones’ script was that it had this really theatrical element to it. I thought that the scope of this character is so broad, and there is so much fun to be had playing a crazy teenage loner. It was a great way to explore the delusions a mind can create Picture Quote #1

I’m there to make a kind of theatrical music that is desperately missing in my life. And if other people don’t like it, I’m very unhappy, but I can’t do anything about that Picture Quote #1

If you don’t know a lot about figure skating, it’s easy to fall in love with ice dancing because it’s so romantic and so theatrical Picture Quote #1

I know I’m as comfortable doing period as I am contemporary. I suppose we grow up with it in a sense, in the theater. We get to put on costumes and play a lot of period dramas or plays so we’re exposed to it a little bit more I think because of our theatrical background Picture Quote #1

I grew up in the theatre. It’s where I got my start. Writing a television drama with theatrical dialogue about the theatre is beyond perfection Picture Quote #1

I was always a drama queen. I remember playing in the kitchen, trying to get my mom to think I was dead and call the police. When she didn’t, I would cry. I was always theatrical. I don’t think any of my relatives are surprised Picture Quote #1

January, month of empty pockets! let us endure this evil month, anxious as a theatrical producer’s forehead Picture Quote #1

Figure skating is theatrical. It’s artistic. It’s elegant. It’s extremely athletic. And there’s a very specific audience for that Picture Quote #1

Every film may not be appropriate for a theatrical release, and the theatrical business is not a very good business for anybody except the distributor Picture Quote #1

It always surprises me when I see the director’s versions of films released separately, long after the film’s theatrical run Picture Quote #1

At the end of the 1960s, I was part of the downtown theatrical movement in New York that was making work in alleyways, garages, gyms, churches, non-traditional spaces. The idea was to get away from the illusion of the conventional theatre. But then I thought, what’s wrong with illusion? Picture Quote #1

But then in novels the most indifferent hero comes out right at last. Some God comes out of a theatrical cloud and leaves the poor devil ten thousand-a-year and a title Picture Quote #1
