Famous quotes containing the words repertory and/or theater:
“Each writer is born with a repertory company in his head. Shakespeare has perhaps 20 players, and Tennessee Williams has about 5, and Samuel Beckett one—and maybe a clone of that one. I have 10 or so, and that’s a lot. As you get older, you become more skillful at casting them.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“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)
