Sherie Rene Scott Quote#1

Posted: 1/10/09 at 9:48pm

Does anyone happen to know the quote by Sherie on why she loves theatre? It had to do with "being in the moment" and "that performance can never happen again". A poster on here had it as their signature, and I absolutely LOVED it.

Any help is appreciated!!

"That's the scary thing about theater—it doesn't live on. But that's actually the most beautiful thing about it, too. That's why it's more beautiful than film and certainly more beautiful than television, because it's like life. Real life. Any picture that you take or any video that you make of yourself is not really you, it's only an image that represents the experience you had. In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last—only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life—beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life."

That is one of the many reasons why I love Sherie! She is not only extremely talented, but she has amazing insites on the theater and life-when I hear her speak it is so inspiring in so many ways-and when I hear her sing, its even more inspiring!

What is this from? I feel like she said it-as in spoken...I feel like I just heard her say it a few days ago...does anyone know?

I enjoyed it as well...thanks for asking AND posting the answer!

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Wow. What an incredible individual. And she's totally on the mark with everything she said- you never know where life will take you, but that's also the beautiful thing about it.

PS- this is one of my favorite interviews with her... I laughed so hard the first time I watched it.

Not only is she talented and wise, but she is also very funny. I remember that backstage interview with her (that I think was on this site) and she was incredibly funny.

Beautifully spoken. Those are some of the best and truest words that I've ever head about theater.

I love that woman.
