LINKS WITH MILLER + Stoppard:
In a 1988 panel, Miller and Stoppard were on, Miller claimed that if he were to write DOAS today, it would not succeed on the stage. Its moral and social focus would not find a hearing. Stoppard, however, was more optimistic. The problem, he explained, was that “there aren’t enough good plays, not that there are too many for the economics to handle … I think that all pronouncements of the theatre’s death are some kind of symbolism for some other earth somewhere.” He stated his position that your work can lose its force if you become too aware of your editorial stance which you’re trying to deal with the “collision of human personalities on paper… the moment you say “What is the challenge of theatre today”, you look down into an abyss.
