“People sometimes say, "Isn't it boring, isn't it always the same? It's the same lines." I go, "Well, do you play tennis? Because that's the best analogy I can give." If you go out eight times and play tennis eight times this week, yeah it's the same rules but it's a different game every time you're out on that court.And that's the best analogy I can come up with the theater.” PeopleIfsGivingWellsI CanDifferentSometimesPlayGamesLinesWeekTheaterYeahCourtCome UpBoringEightTennisAnalogies Author:Kevin Spacey
“That's why I love improvisational theater so much - you do it [scene] once and then it's done. You don't get bogged down with a lot of preplanning and repetition. If I do something and it gets a laugh, I don't want to do it again. Why bother? I'm just repeating myself. It's boring.” IfsWantDoneLaughingSceneTheaterBoringBotherRepetitionWhy Bother Author:Amy Sedaris

“Today there are very few chefs at that high level who are behind their stoves. You don't feel their presence within the room. Where's the romance? Where's the show? Where's the theater?

“Being on a film set is like being in tech forever. In theater, when you finally finish rehearsing, you go onstage and you do the lights and the sets and you make the machine of the production work. It takes usually about ten days in the theater, two or three weeks if it's a really big musical. I mean, it's hell on earth. You just sit around forever while they adjust the lights. And every playwright with half a brain runs for the hills when tech starts because it's so boring, and you don't want to talk to the director because the director is running this giant machine.” IfsWantMeanTwoBigsLightRunningEarthFilmThreeBrainHalfHellForeverWeekDirectorsTenMachinesTheaterMusicalProductionsBoringHillsGiantsWorking ItPlaywrightHell On EarthFilm SetRehearsingSo Boring Author:Tony Kushner
