Theatre models for us a kind of public discourse that lies at the heart of democratic life, and develops our skills for listening to different sides of a conversation or argument, and empathizing with the struggles of our fellow human beings, whatever their views may be. When we watch a play, we learn what happens when conflicts don't get resolved, and what happens when they do. We develop our faculty for imagining the outcomes of various choices we might make in our personal lives and our political lives. It's not surprising that, in repressive societies, theatre has often been aligned with the movement toward openness and freedom. All of these things are a part of the most incredible show in all of 2020, the phenomenal Wicked, which will be live on stage at the iconic Gershwin Theatre!
