All the dialogue on tape, and we'd play the tape in performance. Then I thought it'd be interesting if the actor's repeated what they heard on the tape, but at a slower speed, so we'd get a web of language.
From Richard Foreman
There is no work of art that has ever been made that is absolutely truthful about life.
I'm there to make a kind of theatrical music that is desperately missing in my life. And if other people don't like it, I'm very unhappy, but I can't do anything about that.
Quite the opposite. I might fall on my face, but I feel born again.
I've been trying to figure out for at least the last 10 years how to force myself into something more risky.
From that time through the time I was a New Dramatist, when I was something like twenty-two, I saw absolutely everything in New York. Absolutely everything.
You know, actually, I went to Yale because I wanted to stay out of the army.
I realized that I had to be honest about where I was, where I was coming from, and what I was trying to do.
What really happened was one day I decided to write a new kind of play.
As I told you, from the time I was fifteen, I thought the theater was too much involved with actors trying to make the audience love them, being over emotional.
