It's such a rare and rewarding thing to be in control of space and time for two hours a night, to go through a journey and take the audience along. There's nothing quite like it.
I don't think the audience always listens to the critics. That's been proven time and time again.
I think any time anybody sees the bad guy show emotion and you're not hitting the audience over the head, there's always a tinge of empathy for that individual.
The relationship between the media owner, their relationship isn't strictly with people and audiences. It's also with advertisers, and that's the most relationship in radio; in fact it pays the bills.
If I could get the respect of 14-year-olds, I'm happy. They're the toughest audience.
I want very much to communicate science to as wide an audience as possible, but not at a cost of dumbing down, and not at a cost in getting things right.
A lot of actors find it impossible not to ask for the audience's sympathy. They have a need to twinkle.
I love little theatres because it's very intimate, and you can have a very easy rapport with the audience. Everyone's in the same room.
One of the things I love about theater, one of the reasons I'll never give it up, is that it's fifty percent the audience's responsibility.
One of the things that's clear to me from interviews that I've read is that the more popular successful jazz musicians had audiences above and beyond the music community.
Despite all the technical improvements, it still boils down to a man or a woman and a microphone, playing music, sharing stories, talking about issues - communicating with an audience.
I really want younger audience members to see kids in their early 20's playing Frank's music and to be inspired to take things to a higher level themselves.
My general take on American music since 1969 is that it's just getting stiffer and people are getting more uptight - audience, performance, and palace guard.
In chamber music, the audience can hear each instrument and understand (and feel) what the composer and the musicians have in mind as they play.
When the music is physically demanding, I want to make sure that the effort involved is put across to the audience through physical gesture.
I feel 'Britannia High' is aimed at an older audience than 'High School Musical.' 'Britannia High' is more of a serious drama, with the music and dance on top.
People listen to music with cavemen ears: Is it a bird song or the call of a lion? The audience at a musical is dancing in their hearts.
I'm glad that cinema is catching up to what television has known for a while: That three-dimensional, complex women get an audience engaged as much as the men.
I was lucky that audiences in Mexico liked my work. I was even luckier when I got to do movies and plays with my brothers.
All these horror movies are slasher film now. I like them, they're fun, but they wink at the audience and you're really not terrified through the movie.
Lesley: He tried to fuck me in front of the entire audience.
