Famous quotes containing the word theatre:

    “This visible world is wonderfully to be delighted in, and highly to be esteemed, because it is the theatre of God’s righteous Kingdom.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “As in a theatre the eyes of men,
    After a well-graced actor leaves the stage,
    Are idly bent on him that enters next,
    Thinking his prattle to be tedious,
    Even so, or with much more contempt, men’s eyes
    Did scowl on gentle Richard.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The theatre is a gross art, built in sweeps and over-emphasis. Compromise is its second name.”
    —Enid Bagnold (1889–1981)
