...production itself is difficult to describe. It is not shocking in the way the Living Theatre is shocking (nor is it at all like the Living Theatre, for that matter), but it is different from probably anything you have seen in a theatre before. From beginning to end, the actors run the show. They adjust the lights, they move the furniture, they control the play: they dance, they sing, they scream, they make animal noises...

I had seen the opening: parlaying four years of an elitist deferment with an unreachably high birthdate number, which would carry me until my liability ended. Instead, a random grab at pile of capsules has permanently cemented the alliance between my self-interest and my most detached political beliefs. I think draft resistance would have remained my political position after it no longer had to be my personal position. As it is. I'm not given...
