| I am not the one who referenced Bogart and LeCompte, and I also would prefer a good re-imagining by either (or anyone else), but your point remains as misguided as before, now seeming to be contumacious as well, and also wrong. Whether or not the other poster gave the best examples imaginable does not alter that. I recall 2 situations the Wooster Group has found itself in. In one, many years ago, their "sampling" of The Crucible was considered too extensive to be fair use by Miller and Liz shut down the entire show (LSD) when they couldn't work it out. And last year they had a dispute with the Pinter estate over the way they were saying the words in their production of The Room and the estate let the production would go forward but only as a one and done. Neither of these provides sustenance for your proposition. Indeed, both take the wind out of your sails. |
