Famous quotes containing the word theatre:

    “Make them laugh, make them cry, and back to laughter. What do people go to the theatre for? An emotional exercise.... I am a servant of the people. I have never forgotten that.”
    —Mary Pickford (1893–1979)

    “A good drama critic is one who perceives what is happening in the theatre of his time. A great drama critic also perceives what is not happening.”

    “If an irreducible distinction between theatre and cinema does exist, it may be this: Theatre is confined to a logical or continuous use of space. Cinema ... has access to an alogical or discontinuous use of space.”
