I hate that people think going to the theatre is a special occasion. I wish people would treat it as normally as going to the cinema.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The hard thing is getting people to come to the theater to see something, no matter if it's good or not.
Surely, you go to the theater because you want to have a great evening in the theater.
I love to go to a regular movie theater, especially when the movie is a big crowd-pleaser. It's much better watching a movie with 500 people making noise than with just a dozen.
I'm never comfortable at theatre opening nights. If it's my own production I'm too wound up to be able to enjoy the performance and too wary to enjoy the event as a social occasion.
A lot of actors say that theater's the thing for them. And that's great, and I'm not one to speak with any authority about it because of not having done it properly. For me, movies are what I love.
The thing about theatre is that when it is actually occurring, when you have the audience on your side, you absolutely think you can will them to do anything. It's exhilarating.
I love, personally, the experience of going to the theater, going to the cinema.
I don't love the theatre. I'm just not one of them.
I actually think I have an audience member's sensibility about going to the movies.
I think people need to understand that with plays and with cinema, when you hear about it, call and get a ticket then or go and see it then. It's especially with the play, which I can do because it's a limited run.
