At the beginning of the play, Genet wrote: "This play, written, I repeat, by a white man, is intended for a white audience, but if, which is unlikely, it is ever performed before a black audience, then a white person, male or female, should be invited every evening. The organizer of the show should welcome him formally, dress him in ceremonial costume and lead him to his seat, preferably in the front row of the orchestra. The actors will play for him. A spotlight should be focused upon this symbolic white throughout the performance. "But what if no white person accepted? Then let white masks be distributed to the black spectators as they enter the theater. And if blacks refuse the masks, then let a dummy be used." Imagine being the "symbolic white" in such a way! Imagine the stressfulness of being expected to somehow 'represent' hundreds of millions of people. Imagine the potential hostility that such a 'representation' might arouse - one wrong move & the whole of 'whiteness' might be condemned. Then imagine the 'blackness' of the play being under a similar degree of unpleasant scrutiny. Genet combines race & class in his own special symbolic way. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
