Subject: RE: Power and Performing
Naemanson, I think the disagreement is a linguistic glitch. Too often "power" is automatically equated with "domination" these days, and domination would be a non sequitur here.
LEJ, I can only partially agree about the place of the audience. I sing and I tell stories, both, and as a singer I can sing without an audience, but as a storyteller I can tell you that an audience, whether one person or hundreds, is essential to the creation we're talking about.
