America has missed the point on Trump…this Theater of the Absurd…
it is Bertolt Brecht…tis The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui..perhaps beyond grasp of average citizenry…
a piece played in a Manhattan church basement…now brought onto the Broadway stage with glitz…glamour… touch of controversy… non-stop ad-campaign on cable…never enough…
prior to this show…one would have to go back to a Republican Convention where an avant garde act by Clint Eastwood was performed…Soliloquy to an empty Chair…
and yes…Mr. Eastwood’s performance flew over the heads of a baffled audience…perhaps nation…much like The Hindenberg…fire falling from the sky…the humanity…oh the humanity…
let’s face it…anything beyond Hello Dolly is risky to a conservative crowd…
mmm…a musical featuring a strong-willed sharp-minded New York Jewish broad… chorus boys dancing and singing…dancing and singing…
probably chancy too…
