A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
观众
Audience
A playwright must be his own audience. A novelist may lose his readers for a few pages; a playwright never dares lose his audience for a minute.
剧作家必须是他自己的观众。小说家可能几页就失去读者;剧作家一刻也不敢失去观众。
I can never remember being afraid of an audience. If the audience could do better, they'd be up here on stage and I'd be out there watching them.
我从来都不记得害怕过观众。如果观众能做得更好,他们就会站在台上,而我就会站在外面看着他们。
As long as I can make an audience feel something, I don't care whether it's a good thing or bad thing, just to feel something is important to me.
只要我能让观众感受到一些东西,我不在乎它是好是坏,只是觉得一些东西对我来说很重要。
There is always an audience for different individuals, but critics sometimes stop the audience finding the show and the show finding the audience.
观众总是为不同的人而存在的,但有时评论家们会阻止观众发现节目,而节目也会发现观众。
I believe in things that move people, if the audience isn't deeply caught up and moved to either laughter or tears then I don't think it is theater.
我相信能打动人的东西,如果观众没有被深深吸引,没有被感动到大笑或流泪,那么我不认为这是戏剧。
Educators shouldn't be afraid of cliches. You know why? Because kids don't know most of them! They're a new audience. And they're inspired by cliches.
教育者不应该害怕陈词滥调。你知道为什么吗?因为大部分孩子都不认识!他们是新观众。他们的灵感来自于陈词滥调。
Sylvester has a great popular sense, as good as any writer I've ever worked with. He knows what audiences want to see, and what they don't want to see.
西尔维斯特和我共事过的任何一位作家一样,具有很强的大众意识。他知道观众想看什么,不想看什么。
I stuck out like a sore thumb when I came on, just by the fact that I looked so different. I think that adjustment for the audience was a hurdle for me.
我刚出道的时候显得很突出,就因为我看起来很不一样。我认为对观众的调整对我来说是一个障碍。
The white audiences thought I was white, my features being what they are, and at every performance I'd have to take off my gloves to prove I was a spade.
白人观众认为我是白人,我的五官就是我的五官,每次演出我都得脱下手套,以证明我是铁锹。
Children are the most wonderful audiences. What's struck me most is that that they watch it so silently, until the end when they shriek and shout and clap.
孩子们是最棒的观众。最让我印象深刻的是,他们是如此安静地看着它,直到最后他们尖叫、呼喊和鼓掌。
If you aim at anything lower that is expecting your audience to be really alert and aware, then you're going to be caught out sooner or later as a composer.
如果你的目标是那些期望你的听众保持警觉和意识的较低的东西,那么你迟早会成为一个作曲家。
Nowadays the audience has changed. No one can anticipate the audience. That's what I think musicals will come to. No backstage stories, nothing of that sort.
现在观众变了。没有人能预料到观众。我想这就是音乐剧的未来。没有幕后故事,没有那种。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I've been on the show for six years and I don't even know what her history is. I sort of make things up in my mind, but I think it's hard for an audience to follow and invest in a character when they don't have the details.
我上这个节目已经六年了,我甚至不知道她的过去。我在脑海中有一些想法,但我认为当观众不了解一个角色的细节时,他们很难理解并投入其中。
I think I probably would have enjoyed to keep my own private pain out of my work. But I was changed by my audience who said your private pain which you have unwittingly shown us in your early songs is also ours.
我想我可能很乐意把我个人的痛苦从我的工作中排除出去。但我被我的听众改变了,他们说,你在早期歌曲中无意中表现给我们的私人痛苦也是我们的。
Now in a way, money is money, and if it's going to increase our audience, that's fine.
从某种意义上说,钱就是钱,如果它能增加我们的观众,那就好。
The history of modern art is also the history of the progressive loss of art's audience. Art has increasingly become the concern of the artist and the bafflement of the public.
现代艺术史也是一部艺术受众逐步流失的历史。艺术越来越受到艺术家的关注和公众的困惑。
When you're singing you can hear the echo of people in the audience singing every single word with you, and that was that big dream that I had for myself. It's happening.
当你唱歌的时候,你可以听到观众的回音,他们和你一起唱着每一个字,那就是我为自己做的那个伟大的梦想。它的发生。
