In a recent workshop, Larissa Fasthorse said she began writing plays as a way to change the world. Of course that is quixotic, but in a way, I agree.
“I definitely write from a need to try, in my own two hours, to right a wrong. My little play is inconsequential in terms of whether or not we have health care, but it may affect the way people who see the play think about the issue.” ~Lisa Loomer
