Canadian Theatre Review, 2001
Is this really your job? Incredulity always. You mean, you get to play all day? Like, all the time? In a world where work equals serious purpose, theatre defies the definition of job. We have too much fun. We look at each other too hard. We grow too close in rehearsal. Theatre is by its very nature subversive of industrial routine.

While theatre is not the only art with political dimensions, it offers a unique forum for the political by involving audiences in a perceptible, if ephemeral, social reality ...

L’arte, e quindi il teatro, e il modo di esprimere questo mondo. Sembra semplice, ma non e cosi. Bisogno avere ben chiaro soprattutto un punto: che la cultura e sempre in stretta relazione con il potere ...
