| I've only seen the play in performance and it certainly got under many of the audience members' skin. During the intermission, one member of the audience was saying largely what you were saying in a very loud voice right next to the author. I don't think documentary theater which is assembled from interviews should be used as an excuse for what you see as the play's deficiencies but it factored into the way I watched the play. The play brings out the critic in many people. Yet oddly, those criticisms don't seem to address the play's political questions... as in what are they? And what to make of the play's final image? |
