Well, it is a performance, and it's from NEOH, so we must acknowledge that it's ours.

Who says live theater is dead? It's just been exported.
Why is this relevant? I see this as a symptom of a much larger social trend. There is a very real struggle taking place these days, not just for 'eyeballs', but for 'neurons' themselves.
Homophobia, the rise of belief in 'intelligent design' and the decline in people's understanding of the nature of science, election fraud, the passive acceptance of the hateful right-wing agenda, 'wal-mart' consumerism, a growing preference for individual podcasts vs live theater, these are all examples of the same class of phenomena. People are being systematically trained to be passive consumers, live theater requires thought.
