I don't know about your attention span for paintings and sculptures, Mando,
but mine maxes out at 10 minutes -- and usually much less.

On the other hand, a playwright/director has to hold an audience tight for 90
minutes or more, an incredible achievement -- and hardly ever successful with
impatient individuals like myself, so  I walk out of (or go to sleep in) shows
all the time.

I think that's why a phenomenally successful director like Robbins was so
fanatic about getting each moment better-better-better-best.

It wasn't about expressing his artistic soul -- it was about keeping the
attention of a demanding audience.

He was a slave to his audience ---  and a dictator to his cast.
