Video 03 of Oedipus at Colonus Rehearsal led by Mark Fleishman on morning of 2022-11-01
Description
Mark continues discussing Thabo Mbeki, and how he fitted in the South African political context, between the 'educated/intellectual' and the masses who desired action, and his eventual outing as President of South Africa. Mark brings the discussion to share that he sees a direct comparison between Thabo Mbkei and Coriolanus. Coriolanus is an argument for vanguard leadership. Mark proposes layering the character of Thabo Mbkei on Theseus. Mark sees Thesues an an absent ruler. The question becomes raised: "What is the right kind of leadership?". There is an interest for Mark in the difference between the public and the private aspects of the leader.
