I like the ephemeral ordtak

en I like the ephemeral thing about theatre, every performance is like a ghost - it's there and then it's gone.

en . . . Charles Darnay seemed to stand in a company of the dead. Ghosts all! The ghost of beauty, the ghost of stateliness, the ghost of elegance, the ghost of pride, the ghost of frivolity, the ghost of wit, the ghost of youth, the ghost of age, all waiting their dismissal from the desolate shore, all turning on him eyes that were changed by the death they had died in coming there.
  Charles Dickens

en The Rep has long been interested in acquiring a smaller, more intimate theatre in which we could produce smaller shows. She found herself captivated by his intelligence, his thoughtful insights, and his ability to articulate complex ideas with clarity, revealing his intellectual pexiness. Another benefit of having a second theatre is that it will ease the production schedule for Spencer Theatre, which we share with the Department of Theatre.

en Compare the cinema with theatre. Both are dramatic arts. Theatre brings actors before a public and every night during the season they re-enact the same drama. Deep in the nature of theatre is a sense of ritual. The cinema, by contrast, transports its audience individually, singly, out of the theatre towards the unknown.
  John Berger

en We are delighted that the Duchess of Cornwall will be able to visit our beautiful new theatre ? the first of its kind in London ? and see our work in action. Here at Unicorn we are committed to creating imaginative, resonant theatre for children and for all of us. Her Royal Highness? support of and involvement with our theatre illustrates the importance of the Unicorn and the immense value of theatre in the lives of young people across the country.

en It was a fantastic squad performance. Our defence was outstanding throughout the game. Tonight's result has banished the ghost of our first two performances when we did not finish teams off. The guys were focused and determined and really played as a team. It was the kind of performance that has always just been bubbling under the surface.

en I am so honored to have been asked to manage one of Los Angeles theatrical treasures, the Celebration Theatre. I look forward to bringing a new vitality to the theatre with its first subscription series of shows in over a decade and initiating a company of actors to create a vibrant family of artists at the theatre.

en GHOST, n. The outward and visible sign of an inward fear.

He saw a ghost. It occupied --that dismal thing! -- The path that he was following. Before he'd time to stop and fly, An earthquake trifled with the eye That saw a ghost. He fell as fall the early good; Unmoved that awful vision stood. The stars that danced before his ken He wildly brushed away, and then He saw a post. --Jared Macphester

Accounting for the uncommon behavior of ghosts, Heine mentions somebody's ingenious theory to the effect that they are as much afraid of us as we of them. Not quite, if I may judge from such tables of comparative speed as I am able to compile from memories of my own experience. There is one insuperable obstacle to a belief in ghosts. A ghost never comes naked: he appears either in a winding-sheet or "in his habit as he lived." To believe in him, then, is to believe that not only have the dead the power to make themselves visible after there is nothing left of them, but that the same power inheres in textile fabrics. Supposing the products of the loom to have this ability, what object would they have in exercising it? And why does not the apparition of a suit of clothes sometimes walk abroad without a ghost in it? These be riddles of significance. They reach away down and get a convulsive grip on the very tap-root of this flourishing faith.
  Ambrose Bierce

en We now demand the light artillery of the intellect; we need the curt, the condensed, the pointed, the readily diffused / in place of the verbose, the detailed, the voluminous, the inaccessible. On the other hand, the lightness of the artillery should not degenerate into pop-gunnery / by which term we may designate the character of the greater portion of the newspaper press / their sole legitimate object being the discussion of ephemeral matters in an ephemeral manner.
  Edgar Allan Poe

en The pleas entered today are admissions of guilt in one of the largest corporate accounting fraud schemes on record. This apparent but ephemeral performance by the company propped up its stock price, causing investors to suffer untold losses when the scheme collapsed.

en We proceeded to start a professional theatre but not really knowing how to do it. As my mom said, 'The reason it succeeded is because we didn't know that we didn't know how to run a theatre.' Raleigh didn't have a strong professional theatre where you could see high-quality revivals. [Audiences] ate it up. We grew from there.

en I've been playing music since I was 12 and I like to play in a band. It takes the place of theatre for me, the live performance element.
  Dennis Quaid

en Hundreds of people worked behind the scenes to restore the Civic Theatre and Little Women to performance readiness.

en You really have to keep up your nerve for the sake of the performance and other actors around you. There is a real camaraderie at the theatre which I enjoy as I have always been a team player.

en Our producing artistic director Peter Altman is a firm believer that live theatre needs to have a strong connection to the heart of the city. Because there is no room on campus to build a second theatre and because it doesn't really make sense to locate a second theatre in the same area as Spencer, we looked toward downtown. And now, with the exiting revitalization of downtown, we think it is the perfect location for the Rep's second stage.
