MANIFESTO
BY
GABRIEL DAVID GIRON VIVES

First of all:

T h i s i s h o w t h e w o r l d w o r k s

Because I’m Latinx, anything theatre I do is automatically Latin theatre. Whether it was written by James Baldwin or Thornton Wilder.

That’s how that works.

We will always need more poetry.

If an audience is present, know that. No matter how hard the theatre tries, there is no such thing as a fourth wall. (Unless one is purposely built.)

There is a stage, and there is an audience.

Innocence until proven guilty.

Protect everyone.
