Moment of Truth: The Broken and the Misshapen in Art
I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with political activism, political discourse, and political thinking. I’ve had more of a love-love relationship with political theater, though not an unconditional love-love. What I love about the politics of Back to Back is that only in art can they display both their disabilities and abilities while opening for examination the drama of discrimination and oppression people labeled “disabled” experience.
In a Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen looks back on a piece of theater he never saw.
