THEATRE
THOUGHTS

Eros on the Escalator
Drama can happen on the contra-flow of escalators.
Art vs Commerce
If you're not selling something, it's not art.
 
Authoritarian Musicals
When you leave a musical, you're anybody's fool.
Backstage
The frontstage magic all happens backstage.
The Fever Dream of Captain America
Our fever dream of empire
has weakened the body politic.

Imagination and Identity
No more script ghettos — free the imagination!
Mary Poppins is a Capitalist Fairy Tale
It's not about the witchy nanny but the family's father, Mr. Banks.  Really.
On Acting
Pretending can lead us to the truth about ourselves.
The Background Radiation of Color
DuBois' "color line" of 1903 is still our color line today.
Antoine's Beef
When theatre is in danger of becoming irrelevant, it is time to take the hammer and pound on the cathedral door.
