Famous quotes containing the word drama:

    It’s hard enough to write a good drama, it’s much harder to write a good comedy, and it’s hardest of all to write a drama with comedy. Which is what life is.
    Jack Lemmon (b. 1925)

    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.
    Kenneth Tynan (1927–1980)
