Thus some "Stratfordians," or defenders of the actor's authorship, profess to know from all the signed work of Bacon, and from all that has reached us about Bacon's occupations and preoccupations, from 1590 to 1605 that the theory of Bacon's authorship of the plays is "impossible." I, however, do not profess this omniscience.
It was a few minutes past ten. The last thing Arthur Stoss had said on parting occurred to him, "At half past ten to the dot, I shall be on the boards behind the footlights." Frederick told the artists about Arthur Stoss; and Willy Snyders, the man of initiative, proposed that they go together to Webster and Forster to see the armless actor's performance.
He suffered the effects of the circumstantial out of consideration for her." "Indeed!" Tollman's voice was one of quickened interest, seemingly of pleased surprise. He was developing an excellent facility in the actor's art. "That is gratifying news. One likes to think well of an old friend, but how did you learn?" The woman bit her lip.
The actor's business is primarily to reproduce the ideas of the author's brain, to give them form, and substance, and color, and life, so that those who behold the action of a play may, so far as can be effected, be lured into the fleeting belief that they behold reality.
The old actor looked at him with a relieved expression. "Ah, yes, I see. Yes, you're indeed right. As you say, it is quite a dreadful scene." "Oh, then you've seen it yourself, sir," said Oliver, in a relieved tone. The old actor's eyes twinkled. He, too, had read the young man's mind not a difficult task when one looked down into Oliver's eyes. "Oh, many, many times," he answered with a smile.
as Thomas Bailey Aldrich wrote of Sargent's portrait, which heads this chapter was a strange and moving one, and in range of expression unsurpassed. His eyes were especially wonderful, dark brown, but seeming to turn black in moments of passion, and conveying, with electrical effect, the actor's thought. He was unique. He stood apart. The American stage has never produced another like him.
Madame Delobelle listened to them with a smiling face. One can not be an actor's wife for thirty years without becoming somewhat accustomed to these peculiar mannerisms. But one little corner of the table was separated from the rest of the party as by a cloud which intercepted the absurd remarks, the hoarse laughter, the boasting.
In tragedy, passion or intensity sweeps all before it, and when I say passion, I mean the passion of pathos as well as wrath or revenge. These are the supreme elements of the actor's art, which cannot be taught by any system, however just, and to which all education is but tributary.
First thing I knew, though, Piddie was havin' star-chamber sessions with a seedy-lookin' piker that wore an actor's overcoat and a brunette collar that looked like it had been wished onto his neck about last Thanksgivin'. They'd get together in a corner of the reception room and whisper away for half an hour on a stretch.
So you think me capable " Harel interrupted him hurriedly, not relishing the angry light in the actor's eyes: "No, no not at all: I was joking." "Ah, you were joking? Eh bien, your joke is a horribly bad one. Pray don't repeat it." Lemaitre was not deceived by the manager's sudden change of base. Three days afterward he revenged himself by a cutting bit of sarcasm. It was in Harel's own office.
