The Voices of the State

While heading over to Little Tokyo...

Which made me think about what I read in Peter Brooks' The Empty Space:

"I can take any empty space and call it bare stage. A man walks across this empty space whilst someone else is watching him, and this is all that is needed for an act of theatre to be engaged."

Then I thought of what Anne Bogart said about the 'violence' of theatre, how theatre was, is and will always be an act of provoking thought. That's why it's violent. 

Then... I witnessed theatre walking to Little Tokyo. The action of the people, observed by me, which provoked the thought of the state of State!
