MANTALK
It was really interesting. It starts off with the actors making various statements that define men: their overwhelming desire to please their women sexually as well to defend them, etc.
Then they went on to talk about their fathers. Of course, they had nothing to good to say about them. There was a piece on a rapist, a child molester, boys liming on the block that reminded me of students at my school and much more.
What struck me about this theatrical piece is that all the bad things about men were highlighted. I would have wanted to hear from a man who loved his family, his wife. A man secure in his manhood and is not afraid to be expressive. To me that is what I felt was lacking. I am comparing this to Vagina Monologues, but then, that's not a fair comparison.
But all in all, it was good.
