About this Quote

This quote by Jerome Lawrence speaks to the power of theatre and the feelings it can stimulate. A play is a type of storytelling that can bring people together and develop a shared experience. Through a play, an audience can be taken on a journey of feelings, from pleasure to grief, from laughter to tears. A play can be an effective tool to check out the human condition and to expose the complexities of life. It can be a way to explore hard subjects and to expose the battles of daily life. A play can be a way to bring individuals together and to create a shared understanding of the world. It can be a method to check out the depths of the human experience and to develop an area for discussion and understanding. A play is a passion, a method to check out the depths of the human experience and to produce a shared understanding of the world.
