That audience embrace has unbelievable power.
Performance is always oriented towards a spectator, towards an imagined audience and I was thinking who is their imagined audience?
Loose and jocular, Stanley proved to be a master at relating to nightclub audiences
I don't just want to be associated with a few good 3D movies and the audience is saying all of the other ones are crap.
When an audience comes to one of my concerts, I hope they'll see themselves, somewhere, in one of the songs.
