I completely disagree of course. Art has a much deeper
meaning, even the artist who creates it does not understand fully. When an
artist creates something so wonderful and all the people say how amazing it is,
you can be sure that most artist are as dumbfounded as all the rest. Because
indeed I believe true art is something that God creates and the artist we can
see with our eyes is only a pencil wielded by God. That being said, to believe
is to stir and to create is to be stirred. The same can be said for plays, even
if what is being performed does not have direct insight or easily found
meaning. One who has watched such a play may indeed forget all about it but
thoughts are the way we shape our beliefs and if a thought or saying gets stuck
in your mind and makes you change a certain aspect of a thought or belief then
the play has done more than simply be an entertaining knife.
