Performing Quotes (page 29)

I was lucky enough to get to perform on stage in front of 20 million people on TV, and 150 thousand in concerts. For 15 minutes I got to be a rock star, the 15 minutes is great! It turns into Spinal Tap after 20 minutes. Mark Mothersbaugh
Obviously, my life and my job in 2010 is very different from Peggy's experience in the 1960s. I exist in a world that enjoys more equality between men and women. But I don't take any of that into my performance. I just want to play the character as who she is as an individual - scene to scene. Elizabeth Moss
Samantha Morton quote: "Some directors cast you because they trust you to do the..."
Some directors cast you because they trust you to do the performance - but then they forget to direct you. Samantha Morton
I think there's a very fine line between the type of performing that some actors do, and being in a state in your mind where you actually believe what's going on. If we weren't actors, what would we do with that ability? Would we not be slightly insane? Mentally ill? I don't know. Samantha Morton
Samantha Morton quote: "I believe it is my duty as a performer to raise issues in the..."

Van Morrison quote: "I write songs. Then, I record them. And, later, maybe I..."
I write songs. Then, I record them. And, later, maybe I perform them on stage. That's what I do. That's my job. Simple. Van Morrison
Van Morrison quote: "Every performance is different. That's the beauty of it."
Every performance is different. That's the beauty of it. Van Morrison
I need to be performing. I need to be acting. I need to be designing a condo and ripping down walls and buying new plates and looking at fashion magazines. There always has to be some movement in the artistic department for me to not get really, really low. Alanis Morissette
My brother Trev went to the Professional Performing Arts School in New York, and he used to do his monologues and stuff and rehearse in our apartment. So I used to hear him all the time doing these things over and over and over. And when I was a little girl, I used to soak up everything - like anything anyone did, I soaked it up. Chloe Moretz
I remember the difficulty we had in the beginning replacing magnetic cores in memories and eventually we had both cost and performance advantages. But it wasn't at all clear in the beginning. Gordon Moore
When a pianist sits down and does a virtuoso performance he is in a technical sense transmitting more information to a machine than any other human activity involving machinery allows. Robert Moog
For me, making the show work was getting belly laughs - like most variety artists. But the straight actor believes you fix your performance in rehearsal and that's it. Ron Moody
John Monks quote: "The best performers in Europe are those who use their welfare..."
The best performers in Europe are those who use their welfare states to help people adjust to change. John Monks
