The highest of highs is to have a new routine that you’re just breaking in and that’s working, and that’s – you’re one step removed doing a situation comedy because you have a live audience...

Kitabu cha ‘Kolonia Santita’ ni kitabu cha wasomi na wasiokuwa wasomi, watu wa mijini na watu wa vijijini, watu wazima, vijana na watoto. Hadhira ya kitabu hiki ni jamii nzima ya Tanzania.

Every once in a while, when the audience is expecting to see one thing, you have to show them something else.

I am proud of what I have got and I need an audience.

We’re neither happy nor worried about it. The replacement program is doing what it’s supposed to and drawing an audience.

I can reach the mass audience if I come from different perspectives on every song.

I sang ‘American Pie’ a lot in my stage set. It had a knack of uniting an audience in a sing-along. It’s a clever song about American history but wrapped in a fantastic tune.

Audience response to The Man From U.N.C.L.E. back in the ’60s – well, I was frankly surprised by the show’s success and the attendant publicity for David and myself.

Assuming Sandberg’s advice is completely useless for working-class women is just as shortsighted as claiming her advice needs to be completely applicable to all women. And let’s be frank: if Sandberg chose to offer career...

When they say you’re the best, I always remember that the majority of the audience probably thinks someone else should have gotten the award.

Every baseball crowd, like every theatre audience, has its own distinctive attitude and atmosphere.

I was always more interested in the ultimate live performance rather than the recording for its own sake. And, for the audience too, that thrill of – just being there.

I’m trying to sell every audience something; that something is me.

We found that the more content we make available, the more buzz we create. There’s an audience for the consumption of media that’s super-strong in front of the TV and also strong when people are...

Anytime you get an audience that’s paying attention, you enjoy it more.

Violence and nonviolence are, after all, two different forms of theater. They both depend and thrive on the response of an audience.

I get a lot out of a show when I know that I don’t know anyone in the audience and don’t think the audience knows much about the music.

I think the audience is pretty intelligent.

The first monster you have to scare the audience with is yourself.

The most important thing when you do a movie is that you find an audience that really understands what you want to do and is really supportive of it.

My wit is only as stupid as the audience.

I think comedy as an art involves the audience as a participant as much as is involves the artist.

Like the he-man movie stars who turn out to be queer . . . or the silent-film actors whose voices sound terrible recorded–the audience only wants a limited amount of honesty. [ellipses original]

I made mistakes in drama. I thought drama was when actors cried. But drama is when the audience cries.

A crowd of men stood in front of them. Of all ages, with expressions of sex-wonder in their eyes, gazing curiously as men who cannot solve a mystery that populates graveyards and through the ages...

Your audience is one single reader. I have found that sometimes it helps to pick out one person-a real person you know, or an imagined person-and write to that one.

I don’t think today’s younger audience… would even know what 1920s musicals were like.

I always wanted to live the lives of different people, portray characters that are different from me. But I could have done that in front of a mirror, also, I didn’t need to do films...

We like our food fried, greasy and sweet. My people in the audience know we go to a funeral to eat, not to cry. We can have a throw-down meal at a funeral. But we...

I don’t know how to do a show not in front of a live audience.

I don’t feel like I need to preach to the world or nothing like that. I just feel like I share what I say, and if listeners get it, they get it. And I never...

We play to houses that are 15,000 to 17,000 people [compared to Broadway shows with an audience of 2,000 or 3,000]. It’s a different style of entertainment. I trained in the theater to sing to...

Too many companies think they want to do a video blog to sell merchandise, but if you turn your site into QVC, you lose. I have an audience that trusts me. It’s about building a...

The greatest challenge on the Web in the twenty-first century is to connect with your target audience in a way that enriches both them and you.

If I get a hard audience they are not going to get away until they laugh. Those seven laughs a minute — I’ve got to have them.

Given the choice between trivial material brilliantly told versus profound material badly told, an audience will always choose the trivial told brilliantly.

I actually think I have an audience member’s sensibility about going to the movies.

At some of the venues, the audience was so loud we could hardly hear what was happening on stage, which kind of threw us back to 1983, when we had very similar reactions on a...

We didn’t have specific goals in terms of number of downloads. Partially because there’s nothing to measure us against. It’s a very new medium, and it’s a niche. We weren’t sure what sort of audience...

As CEO and then chairman of CNBC, Pamela led the network through a most challenging era in business news reporting. The network has retained its strong profitability, and the CNBC audience continues to be among...

I feel the audience has a right to know if some of the money they’re spending is going to a certain cause, and reassuring them the money is going to where it’s supposed to be...

If there were no rules about when to applaud, we in the audience would have the right response almost always.

As a director, there is nothing more fun than seeing an audience screaming and jumping. You are the ultimate puppet master, controlling the emotions of the audience.

It has an extremely strong, hard-core audience. It has been marginalized as a sport of cable TV. It’s never been an advertiser-friendly sport because you don’t know how long a bout will go, and some...

Violent resistance and nonviolent resistance share one very important thing in common: They are both a form of theater seeking an audience to their cause.

There’s nothing more important than having a personal connection with your audience.

But my way of writing is rather to think aloud, and follow my own humours, than much to consider who is listening to me; and, if I stop to consider what is proper to be...

The audience that would see that movie, by and large, doesn’t go to see horror films, … It was a great pleasure to make, and to see Meryl (Streep) nominated (for a best actress Oscar)...
