“Audiences are audiences.” — Theodore Bikel Quote

“Audiences are audiences.”

“I am first, and foremost, an actor. That's what I am. To me, a song is a mini-drama. My musical ability informs the actor as well because it gives me a sense of timing that non-musicians don't have. So, one hand washes the other.”

“Although I am deeply grateful to a great many people, I forgo the temptation of naming them for fear that I might slight any by omission.”

“In 2020, Wuhan may seem remote to Western audiences, but it's a bustling, giant city with more than 500 direct international flights a day, situated in a country that has made great strides in domestic transportation since 2003, with more flights and high-speed train lines.”

“You just have to keep your head down and do your work and hope that audiences respond.”

“The idea that women are innately gentle is a fantasy, and a historically recent one. Kali, the Hindu goddess of destruction, is depicted as wreathed in male human skulls; the cruel entertainments of the Romans drew audiences as female as they were male; Boudicca led her British troops bloodily into battle.”
