EUGENE IONESCO
" I
personally would like to bring a
tortoise onto the stage, turn it into a racehorse, then into a hat, a
song, a dragoon and a fountain of water. One can dare anything in the
theatre and it is the place where one dares the least."
TENNESSEE WILLIAMS
"The color,
the grace and levitation, the
structural pattern in motion, the quick interplay of live beings,
suspended like fitful lightning in a cloud, these things are the play,
not words on paper, nor thoughts and ideas of an author, those are
shabby
things snatched off basement counters at Gimbel's."
EDWARD ALBEE
"People often ask me how long
it takes me to write a play, and I tell them 'all of my life. "
