Famous quotes containing the word theater:

    “It’s one of the tragic ironies of the theater that only one man in it can count on steady work—the night watchman.”
    —Tallulah Bankhead (1903–1968)

    “We live in a time which has created the art of the absurd. It is our art. It contains happenings, Pop art, camp, a theater of the absurd.... Do we have the art because the absurd is the patina of waste...? Or are we face to face with a desperate or most rational effort from the deepest resources of the unconscious of us all to rescue civilization from the pit and plague of its bedding?”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “We all know that the theater and every play that comes to Broadway have within themselves, like the human being, the seed of self-destruction and the certainty of death. The thing is to see how long the theater, the play, and the human being can last in spite of themselves.”
    —James Thurber (1894–1961)
