Waterman is careful to explain that St. Mark's does not aim to syncretize the doctrines and rites of the four churches. Each denomination will hold separate religious services for its own members, although the ministers have not yet figured out precisely how to divide up Sunday morning. As members of a single Christian community, St. Mark's parishioners will be invited to join regular ecumenical prayer service. And the four ministers will work togther in providing spiritual counseling for the parish, religious education and social-action projects aimed at combatting crime and juvenile delinquency in the neighborhood...

He speaks too of God, but I come away from text and performance feeling that this More's God is one Sir Thomas would not have recognized. Bolt gives us almost a Tillichian "ground of being," not the deity of A.D. 1535. When More on the scaffold protested that...

...blade is sharpened on a grindstone, Genet has defined himself against society. In a world where many people can scarcely explain what they do, a crime is at least a visible and dramatic act. Genet is the total theatrician in that he revels in making illusion indistinguishable from reality.
