Playhouses Quotes : pic 001529426
In large Victorian houses with many rooms and heavy doors, the occupants could be mysterious and exciting to one another in a way that those who live in rackety developments can never hope to be. Not even the lust of a Lord Byron could survive the fact of Levittown.

At the end of the 1960s, I was part of the downtown theatrical movement in New York that was making work in alleyways, garages, gyms, churches, non-traditional spaces. The idea was to get away from the illusion of the conventional theatre. But then I thought, what's wrong with illusion?
Playhouses Quotes : pic 001295880
There are tents, I am certain, that I have not discovered in my many visits to the circus. Though I have seen a great deal of the sights, traveled a number of the available paths, there are always corners that remain unexplored, doors that remain unopened. -Friedrick Thiessen, 1896

Playhouses Quotes : pic 000592401
As a kid, his favorite toy had been a snow globe, that held a small town of gingerbread buildings and peppermint streets. He'd wanted so badly to live there that one day he'd smashed the glass ball - only to find out that the houses were made of plaster, the candy stripes painted on.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000196309

A paper town for a paper girl.

Playhouses Quotes : pic 001097489

Playhouses Quotes : pic 000372311
As an actress and comedienne, I'm a huge fan of he theatre and the Tricycle in Kilburn is my favourite in London. I dragged my kids to a performance of 'Twelfth Night' there, where they handed out pizza. Who knew that all it takes to get children interested in Shakespeare is a snack?
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000589521
Beauty, grace, and charm my foot. It's a school for sadists with good tea-serving skills.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000552676

Playhouses Quotes : pic 000525785

THE ADVENTURE OF WISTERIA LODGE
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000665969
Into the center - Queen's Square. This is the heart of Wolverhampton's youth scene - our Left Bank, our Haight-Ashbury, our Soho. To the right, five skaters. To the left, three goths, sitting around the Man On 'Is 'Oss - a statue of a man, on his horse.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 001719818
You enrich people with creative resources, and over time, these Lego bricks that end up in their heads eventually build this enormous, incredible castle.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000817506
When I was young and growing up in New York, my parents took me to children's theater quite often - elaborate presentations of 'Goldilocks' and 'Rapunzel' for Upper East Side kids. As I grew older, they took me to adult theater, mostly musicals.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000900927
I was born and brought up near a village in Nottinghamshire and in my childhood enjoyed the freedom of the rather isolated country life. After the First World War, my father had bought a small farm, which became a marvelous playground for his five children.

Suddenly we saw that you could do plays about real life, and people had been doing them for some time, but they weren't always getting to the audiences. They were performed in little, tiny, theatres.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000751329
When I was a kid, my daily routine was playing make-believe, and I kind of created these stories throughout the day. And when it came time to go to preschool, my English wasn't really so great because my mother wanted me to learn Ukrainian, so she signed me up for these children's theater groups.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000049203
Well, they're magical wardrobes, of course, although they don't lead to any fairy wonderlands.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 001047836
Theater is a verb before it is a noun, an act before it is a place.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000062864
A theatre is not a blank page for editorial, it is not a soapbox or a Tannoy system: it is a conscience that wakes with what is happening in the space, and wakes further still in response to what people are making of it.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 001456327
Many of my short fictions use theatre as a metaphor for situations in which characters find themselves estranged from the larger, uncontrollable world that may or may not lie beyond the proscenium arch.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 001555304
On the farm, in our first-floor bedroom, my sister and I were sheltered in the essence of normal. We were not hidden, but unseen. The orange farmhouse was our castle, our kingdom the fields around, and the shallow creek that bisected our property the sea we crossed to find adventure.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000296166
Countless communities have virtually outlawed unstructured outdoor nature play, often because of the threat of lawsuits, but also because of a growing obsession with order. Many parents now believe outdoor play is verboten even when it is not; perception is nine-tenths of the law.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000968654
Someone told me about drama schools, and they seemed like mythological places - you can really go and be in drama classes all day? I inadvertently entered into this world where people wore bicycle clips and did song-and-dance routines in the corridors.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000873130
Art and religion, carnivals and saturnalia, dancing and listening to oratory - all these have served, in H. G. Wells's phrase, as Doors in the Wall.

There is a place in every childhood, an enchanted place where colors are brighter, the air softer, and the morning more fragrant than ever again.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000921442
A house from which nobody ever went away without feeling better in some way. A house in which there was always laughter.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 001693356
When you're talking about pure form, theater is a wonderful outlet.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000963941
We need a type of theatre which not only releases the feelings, insights and impulses possible within the particular historical field of human relations in which the action takes place, but employs and encourages those thoughts and feelings which help transform the field itself.
Playhouses Quotes : pic 000371618
The high-ceilinged rooms, the little balconies, alcoves, nooks and angles all suggest sanctuary, escape, creature comfort. The reader, the scholar, the browser, the borrower is king.
