dear decolonialist superstar, wearing head to toe custom made clothes by a z**n*st company is playing empire's game

Fania All Stars! Mongo Santamaria, Tito Puente,

dear decolonialist superstar, a reminder that lack of disease prevention is one of empire's tools to keep ppl oppressed.

dear theatre, mas

the decolonialist superstar invited a z**n*st to sing at the big show, tho

i have been told it more than once and i continue to find it baffling

when a playwright tells you their goal is to make their play fit into what a Cl*bb*d Th*mb play is...

perhaps one day the smart ppl playing on the biggest stages in the world will acknowledge the necessity of public health

yes

Like Kendrick, this is directed, designed, & shot by people who really, really know what they’re doing

That final sequence of the marching crowd/flags is all the statement you need

not sure what a football game gas to do with patriotic fervor and display of military prowess but here we are

goooo, Snoops! ⚽

what a grand day Snoops is having! ♥️⚽

"empty, well-meaning heroic tales can serve as a cover for a workplace that consistently underpays its artists and low level administrators, mandates burnout culture as a marker for success, and condones harm in casual and direct ways."

- how do you build a bridge from this world into a better one without telling lies?

The theatre will never swing elections or cause riots. But it's still the greatest instrument ever developed for getting people to look at themselves & their neighbours differently.

- is a quick route to chaos. We need plays that prick self-belief, that ask what have you done or not done to make the world as it is? What kind of person has the system made you? How do you retain your humanity in that? And, as Phelim says -

echo

Theatre cannot save us.
But it can keep something alive that the present order depends on extinguishing: the sense that another way of being together is not only imaginable, but felt.
Fight for theatre that does not provide solutions but enacts the possibility that alternatives can be rehearsed.
