...home from the perils that never happened, home to their families and friends and to something rare in the world that sent them. Home to the miracle of men feeling something together, men strangely undivided in a time of fierce dissension, men all over the earth feeling wonder and warmth and pride.

Nothing is rigid and antiseptic. Masculinity and femininity thrust, parry, yield and wed in a superlative marriage of craft and art. The main theater itself, a semicircular urn of intimacy seating 798, is a kind of womb with seats. Decked out in soft brown and nuzzling together like cattle, the rows of theater seats are concentrated reminders that the playgoer is in an edifice indigenous to the Southwest, a vivid...
