The Wal-Mart-ing of American Theatre


Interesting Reading
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

The article is at least a couple of decades late. Probably more.

He lost me with the accent thing... Sure it's probably unfair on some level that someone should have to hide their accent at an *audition*--but this is theatre, and he seems to say that one sign of how theatre failed America is that we don't experience the joy and msuciality of hearing various regional accents on stage... ??

I really don't understand the point of the article. He kind of sounds like some idealistic moron. NYC is not Walmart.

He could say the same of Hollywood, or wherever. And like Hollywood, some very good, and some awful theatre (similar to indie movies, *I suppose*) is done elsewhere, but... Yeah I don't get the point either
