Famous quotes containing the word theatre:

    “For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.”
    —Sarah Bernhardt (1844–1923)

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

    “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.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
