Theater Reviews—San Francisco and Beyond

Barry Thornton

Barry Thornton

March 11, 2019 Barry Thornton

Barry Thornton is a writer and activist. He came to understand we needed an actual revolution while he was part of the battle against the Vietnam War, and thinks this is more true now than ever. He is on the staff of Revolution Books in Berkeley, and since Trump took office, he has worked with the organization Refuse Fascism. He loves theater. What he expresses in his reviews here is his own perspective on the plays. He looks for the real connection between ideas, people, life and fundamentally changing the world
