Understanding this quote
The speaker presents acting as a long-standing career and highlights his range. He is said to move audiences from laughter in comedy to tears in drama, then playfully imitate a tenor in operettas. The line combines pride with humor: it praises his ability to take on very different roles without claiming that he is actually a trained tenor.
