I feel there's a power in theatre but it's an indirect power. It's like the relationship of the sleeper to the unconscious. You discover things you can't afford to countenance in waking life. You can forget them remember them a day later or not have any idea what they are about.
None of us is guaranteed against failure or corruption of any kind witness what's going on in the world in this moment the follies of human nature and the failures of human nature.
