If You Can't Go to San Fran Each of the Last 40 Years August 10, 2005 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The San Francisco Mime Troupe has been going now for about forty years. They must be doing something right. Or maybe left. More likely all over the place.
Their specialty is political satire. Political satire has to be topical or it looses it's whole sense of being. And once spoken, the show is over, it closes soon for the next incident to hit the press.
At last Professor Mason, has collected some of their finest work and put it together in this book along with some stories that set the pieces in their time. It's broken down by the decade and includes fourteen of their best pieces.
Unfortunately reading a play is much less satisfactory than hearing it actually performed on stage. But reading it is one hell of a lot better than having such work go away forever.
