I think Theatre gets a bad rap because it’s not in a great state these days, and many of you will think of ‘theatre kids’ and Hamilton before anything else.

However, it’s a medium with a very radical history, and a lot of potential for interactive pieces that that can truly educate people about revolutionary practice and so on. I truly think it’s overlooked.

    Also if anyone likes podcasts where leftists talk about theatre check out Worst of All Possible Worlds, it’s not the primary focus but the hosts all have lots of experience in theatre and/or currently work in live theatre. The last free episode is on Stephen Sondheim’s Assassins, and the episode on Dear Evan Hansen, “The Gang Exploits a Teenager’s Death” is hilarious.
