People who are interested in the arts and theater are such a minority.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
For me, art is always a kind of theater.
Some people act as though art that is for a mass audience is not good art, and I think this has been a very negative thing. I know that I have wanted very much to write books that are accessible to the widest audience possible.
More people are exposed to movies than to most other forms of art.
I find that actors who are wanting to pursue tv or films don't seem to have much interest in classical theatre.
We go see theater, we take in art, because it makes us feel.
It really is individual for everyone, but for me, theater is where I learn and grow, and that is always a good thing.
All I know is that as an audience member, I am less and less inclined to go to the theater. But that has to do with content and also because the venues seem to be actively trying to repel people.
The world is a complicated place, and there's a lot of division between people. The performing arts tend to unify people in a way nothing else does.
The arts are the one thing that appeal right across all forms of politics, race, creed - everything.
The great thing about the arts, and especially popular music, is that it really does cut across genres and races and classes.
