In a mere two sentences your entire post blatantly contradicts itself; a production or play can’t be simultaneously “dated” and “woke”, since the two words are in diametric opposition to each other… so which is it? (I’m reminded of the quote from someone a few years back about how, for the most part, the people who use the word ‘woke’ are the very ones who don’t understand what it means.)
(edit: I agree with Singapore below; I can’t speak to Theatre for a New Audience’s version, but the Quintessence Theatre in Philadelphia did a filmed version last year which was not only the best production I’ve ever seen of the play, but easily one of the 2 or 3 best pieces of theater filmed since the pandemic began. (Fully staged, this was, mind you, not some virtual conceit or Zoom reading.) |
