Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or theater:

    “Syncopations are no indication of light or trashy music, and to shy bricks at “hateful ragtime” no longer passes for musical culture.”
    —Scott Joplin (1868–1917)

    “I want to give the audience a hint of a scene. No more than that. Give them too much and they won’t contribute anything themselves. Give them just a suggestion and you get them working with you. That’s what gives the theater meaning: when it becomes a social act.”
    —Orson Welles (1915–1984)
