"...above all, a work
for young people must not talk down to its audience, because they
can always tell. Kids are tougher than any theatre critic. They
will easily expose a playwright who doesn't deliver a story that
is tight as a trap but also lyrical, focused while being fast-moving,
believable but still fantastic, while it challenges them and makes
them question . . .."
Frumi Cohen
"The nervous system
of any age or nation is its creative workers, its artists. And
if that nervous system is profoundly disturbed by its environment,
the work it produces will inescapably reflect the disturbances,
sometimes obliquely and sometimes with violent directness."
Tennessee Williams
"The health of a nation,
a society, can be determined by the art it demands. We have insisted
of television and our movies that they not have anything to do
with anything, that they be our never-never land; and if we demand
this same function of our live theatre, what will be left of the
visual-auditory arts -- save the dance (in which nobody talks)
and music (to which nobody listens)?"
Edward Albee
