COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY MICHAEL BILLINGTON IN THE
GUARDIAN
Michelle Terry's plan
for Shakespeare's Globe is democratic – but is it doable?
Terry’s first season
at the theatre promises to dismantle hierarchies but how easy is it to stage
Hamlet without one director in charge?
It truly makes little sense to me.
It sounds like hopeful hippie visions from the 1970s.
People are afraid of criticizing anything with the word
"democratic" tacked on," but democracy often does not work even
where it supposed to work.
In general, the creative arts are simply not democratic by
their very nature.
