I understand that what humans need, more than the opportunity to attend a concert or act in a play, is access to secure affordable housing, safe and fair working conditions, healthcare, readily available fresh, non-toxic food and water, and an environment for their families to grow up in that is not violent, dangerous or traumatic. But it is also my understanding that, right beside these basic requirements, humans have always needed – and will always need – to play, to create, to reflect and release.
