Congratulations on a wonderful pivot. I had how you can immediately know the ideological content of a play you haven't seen purely by a few sentences of a press release, and instead you talked about screening people as if they were bags.
While that may speak to my suggestion that humanizing immigrants is threatening to some, I wonder if it speaks more to your reaction to anything that pushes against a narrative of America as a Christian, native-born, gun-loving nation (to include your recent rants against Playwrights Horizons programming of plays that rather tamely explore the function of organized religion and the question of how a school shooting affects children and adults in a small town). If depoliticized fare like "This Flat Earth" is your idea of far-left theater, than I think you have an unreliable barometer for what stories are being told. |
