| JOSE RIVERA - ON THEATER AND WAR
by Jason Loewith on 4/03/2007 11:57:00 AM
"I feel that theater is the place where we can best discuss and examine the demons and angels of our inner nature. The place where society is examined, put on trial and tested. Where our values as a community are discussed and challenged. Where change is not only talked about but demonstrated. What happens when we act altruistically? When we speak truth to power? What does it look like when the masks worn by our leaders are taken off?"
So writes Jose Rivera in this week's Chicago Tribune, relative to his play Massacre about to open at the Goodman. Check it out. Thanks to Board President Judy Kemp for sending it on to me!Labels: Chicago theatre
