Daniel Stein Timepiece Timepiece

"For a moment or two, week or two, people will gather together in the Purpose of Theatre. They will do whatever they can, knowing the time and gathering brief, to make it better. To imagine that: making better plays so that plays might better gather people and, thereby, gather better people... is a desirable thing. Even wished for."
