The fight in theatre is focus, focus, focus.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You fight for certain roles, and you realise they're being filled by television and film actors, because theatre is constantly fighting for survival and they need names and faces and ticket sales.
When it is good, theatre takes a lot of beating both to watch and perform.
As an actor you're used to being the focus of attention.
I don't like when I watch a fight in a movie that's perfectly worded and very articulate. If you were able to be that composed, you wouldn't be fighting! Fighting in real life is sloppy.
Theater is a way to keep challenging myself.
Politics with me isn't theater. It's performance art. Sometimes, for its own sake.
With theater, depending on the audience, the show is different every night and really requires your constant concentration. With film, it's more possible to focus for shorter, more intense bits of time.
The theatre is the involuntary reflex of the ideas of the crowd.
If you think there is anything in theater that objectively exists without your point of view attached, you are wrong.
It's communication - that's what theatre is all about.
