About This Quote
No one can truly understand another until they have seen them on stage. And, no one can truly understand themselves until they have seen themselves on stage. The power of theatre is unique. It allows you to see the human condition through the eyes of another person. That’s why I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.
