After cooking and fire
The agit prop is about stories – so simple to become parables. Brechts “Simpler, with more laughter” is proof of his intent and understanding of the form. The successful agit prop allows anything to be said – to install the Diggers, unknown, into the childs brain, while keeping her content with singing and funny faces.
Agit prop must succeed despite destraction, able to survive the pub and the outdoor theatre.
So simple that it cannot contain contridiction, complexity. This is it’s fatal flaw for me. Agit prop contains Marx well, basic anarchism – but can it fit Foucault, Cixous, D&G?
