Inside
our world
The brain is so quick to categorize & compartmentalize that it leaves the modern homosapien emotionally distant from the experience of being alive. It hides what it cannot process in the depths of our subconscious and our bodies. A play is not an essay. The modern theater should strive not to replicate life, but to shake the audience to life in whatever way it can. It is the feeling of clarity in the storm, the truth so strong that for a split second you can feel your head above the water.
