Dance Drama

Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or drama:

    Shall we go dance the hay, the hay?
    Never pipe could ever play
    Better shepherd’s roundelay.
    Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)

    To save the theatre, the theatre must be destroyed, the actors and actresses must all die of the plague. They poison the air, they make art impossible. It is not drama that they play, but pieces for the theatre. We should return to the Greeks, play in the open air: the drama dies of stalls and boxes and evening dress, and people who come to digest their dinner.
    Eleonora Duse (1858–1924)
