Performed in a very informal rendition of "The Madwoman of Chaillot" today. It's a French play from 1943 that still feels deeply relevant today.

It's been over a decade since I was last on any semblance of a stage. Silver lining to the world being a dumpster fire: personal hang-ups and insecurities suddenly feel trivial and irrelevant.

Life on the Wicked Stage: Act 3

Bullies Can Be Made To Turn Tail

So much of what we’re living through in this age of destruction in America was unavoidable before it started, but and yet we avoided doing what was necessary. Damage is happening and will continue. The children’s rhyme of Humpty Dumpty comes to mind and that doesn’t have a pleasant ending. 

 Even if you can’t put all of the pieces back together in the same way they were before, the attempt is worth it. It’s not easy and it’s not without risk. The question of the moment is all about how American businesses will respond to the Trump tariffs. The general consensus is those costs will be passed along to consumers, in effect creating a tax. 

I happen to agree with that consensus. Our problem is that too many American businesses are afraid to confront the bully, and also afraid to cut into their profit margins. The only way to conquer that last fear is to confront the first one. 

While not the same by any stretch of the imagination, here’s a story from my past that’s somewhat analogous, at least on the bully fighting part. 

I used to run the Wayside Theatre in Middletown, Virginia. At the time it was indeed a one stoplight town. The theatre served the local surrounding counties (it sat geographically at the intersection of three counties) and parts of two adjoining states (West Virginia and Maryland). It also served the Washington DC suburbs with easy access down Interstate 66. In the immediate town the theatre helped bring customers to several restaurants and antique stores along its one Main Street. Saturday and Sunday matinees were always a delight to see folks strolling down the sidewalks between the various businesses before and after a show. 

After years of the same very local political leadership, a newcomer to the town succeeded in ousting the mayor. One of his first initiatives was to approach me and say that he was going to enact a $1.00 per ticket surcharge on the theatre to increase the town’s revenue. 

We argued back and forth about this for few months because obviously I didn’t want to see this happen. When I suggested to him that we’d print out each ticket with his name on it saying “This $1.00 Surcharge Brought To You By Mayor Brown,” he didn’t take me seriously at first, but when I showed him a mock-up of the ticket, he saw the light. 

He and I had several other contretemps over the years but ended up being friends in the end, primarily, I believe, because I did stand up to him in that first instance. I’ve won and lost battles to bullies in a similar fashion throughout my life and career. 

Again, it’s not a perfect analogy of what we’re facing as a country, as a society, and as a planet. Even so, to my way of thinking, when you’re confronted with a challenge from someone who wants to toss around their power — real or make believe — you need to stand and deliver or sit down and shut up, taking what you deserve. You might indeed lose, but otherwise you’re just a coward for not trying.

Bonjour fédinautes ! Connaîtriez-vous des sites web qui répertorient des pièces de théâtre ?

Précisément : j'en cherche une, que j'ai jouée au lycée (1998-2000), où j'interprétais un personnage du nom de Urie, et tout le monde était des bébés ou des fœtus. Je crois qu'on n'était pas encore né⋅es et on discutait du monde. Ça parle à quelqu'un ?

Merci bien ! :3

FableMosh Demo: interactive theatre piece 'Descension' by Laura Krasteva has a web interface that lets you switch between different actors in real time, as they read the script. You can also adjust the volume of the soundtrack. The words take on a different meaning, with different actors reading the same text, and the soundscape can come in and out of focus as it interplays with the performer.
