We have been deformed by educational and religious institutions that treat us as members of an audience instead of actors in a drama, so we become adults who treat democracy as a spectator sport.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Democracy is not a spectator sport, it's a participatory event. If we don't participate in it, it ceases to be a democracy.
Democracy is not a spectator sport. It is a difficult, hard, full-contact, participatory endeavor.
We just happened to come along at time where there hadn't been a new young adult drama that also could appeal to adults as well in quite some time. We sort of found a little bit of a niche.
We live in diverse communities with all sorts of people from all sorts of different backgrounds. The more our entertainment can be a reflection of the world we live in, the better it is for all of us.
Is adult entertainment killing our children? or is killing our children entertaining our adults?
Politics has become entertainment.
Sports movies are often very good at dramatizing the intersection of public and private realms: the body politic.
Youngsters are the most discerning audience. They want entertainment, they want issues.
When you set out to really entertain adults as well as kids, your audience is basically anybody who is breathing.
We're so bereft of support of theatre in this day and age.
