Maass noted that the area had grown tremendously since the original three divisions were organized. He pointed out that the field of political development, for example, now has a set of theories of its own which did not even exist a few years...
David Wheeler's production departs from Brook where it shouldn't and follows it where it must. This is inevitable, since the play really doesn't exist apart from its interpretation. Wheeler substitutes a broad cineramic "happening" stage for Brook's deep proscenium, paralyzing the underlings and thrusting the chorus in our laps.

It is just as bad, he added, for reporters...
