    Re: “Streets of America
    I happened to see the show the premier night, and, though its been nearly a year later, I still find that it was one of the most inspired stories I've ever had the privilege to witness or hear. I think that its beauty and purpose shows itself in that it is a true account of what happened, and that there is not anything that can be done. I think that the way we are shown that there is no way to change the outcome, that nothing can be done-the slap in the face is what is truely being expressed. If you don't leave depressed, then you were either sleeping, or you just didn't pay attention, nor care to. The purpose of the play is to try to get you to do something about your depression, but for the here and now; in essence, to keep this war from being the same thing.
