"It is not enough to demand insight and informative images of reality from

the theater. Our theater must stimulate a desire for understanding, a delig

in changing reality. Our audience must experience not only the ways to free

teach all the pleasures and joys of discovery, all the feelings of triumph

associated with liberation."
