Theater Kid Quotes

“My heart is going to collapse if I have to spend one more moment with Nathan while he pretends he likes me and I pretend I don’t love him. Because I do. I haven’t let myself admit it or even think it until now, but I can’t deny the emotions anymore. I love the way he accepts me for who I am, how loyal he is to his friends and the store and my dad, and that he came with me tonight despite his disdain for school functions because he wanted to make sure I was taken care of and happy. He‘s one of the best people I‘ve ever known. I want him to think the same of me. I want him to choose me over everyone and everything else because there’s nowhere he‘d rather be.”
― Kristy Boyce, Dungeons and Drama

“There's still almost an hour before we're supposed to reconvene in the auditorium, and we're probably supposed to run through everything again, but I mean, really. It's Saturday,
we’re in an empty, dark school, and we're a bunch of theater kids wearing pajamas and jacked up on donuts.
We end up singing Disney songs in the stairwell.”
― Becky Albertalli

“Ryanna Raines: And why did you choose "Desire Under the Elms?"

― L.R. Dorn, With a Kiss We Die
