| What I'm getting from this conversation is that the pie shop has no actual conceptual meaning in this production - it's just a space in which the play is performed. In the original, the factory setting was integral to Prince's understanding of the play and the story it was telling. Whether we need that extra layer of "industrial capitalism is built upon canabalism" is up for debate, but it was central to Prince's story. |
