ABSTRACT
In her lifetime diaries, Judith Malina (1926–2015) articulated her desire for the “beautiful nonviolent revolution.” For Malina, theatre was a particularly rich way to help stoke this revolution. Her life's work in the American experimental theatre company The Living Theatre, which she cofounded and directed, is a testament to this passion and vision. Her late spring/early summer 1969 diaries outline a moment of reflection for her and her company about the role of theatre in society and her own responsibility as an artist/activist.
