Famous quotes containing the words dramatic and/or sopranos:
“The flattering, if arbitrary, label, First Lady of the Theatre, takes its toll. The demands are great, not only in energy but eventually in dramatic focus. It is difficult, if not impossible, for a star to occupy an inch of space without bursting seams, cramping everyone elses style and unbalancing a play. No matter how self-effacing a famous player may be, he makes an entrance as a casual neighbor and the audience interest shifts to the house next door.”
—Helen Hayes (19001993)
“Watching Italian opera, all those male sopranos screeching, stupid fat couples rolling their eyes about. Thats not love, its just rubbish.”
—Peter Shaffer (b. 1926)
