Now, drama is quite useful at helping us to understand what our position is and, conversely, we might then understand why our theatre is being destroyed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But what is drama? Broadly speaking, it is whatever by imitative action rouses interest or gives pleasure.
Drama is about conflict, and it's about putting obstacles in the path of people you who care about.
When I came to know theater, drama became valuable to me.
We do not kill the drama, we do not really limit its appeal by failing to encourage the best in it; but we do thereby foster the weakest and poorest elements.
The drama may be called that part of theatrical art which lends itself most readily to intellectual discussion: what is left is theater.
With drama, you need to be laughing, in between takes, 'cause you're going to those recesses of your soul and those dangerous parts. Normally, if you're not an actor or some crazy artist, you don't feel the need to run around in those areas. You keep them separate because it's painful.
What's exciting about theatre is observing human behaviour. You're constantly making judgments about body language, the physical, the emotional, the intellectual.
Everything has its own kind of theatricality and its own drama.
Drama is very important in life: You have to come on with a bang. You never want to go out with a whimper. Everything can have drama if it's done right. Even a pancake.
Theater, for me, is no longer a conversation about how we destroy each other; it's much more about how we may be destroying everyone else.
