New York theatre artists will ask random park visitors and DOWN TO EARTH audiences to sit in a circle to discuss what needs to be changed—and write down the demands of the people of New York on a large white notepad. The results will be forwarded to newspapers, as well as to local and national politicians. In the 1980s, Solidarność (Solidarity) was a broad anti-authoritarian social movement in Poland, using methods of civil resistance to advance the causes of worker’s rights and social change. The Polish Government attempted in the early 1980s to destroy the union through the imposition of martial law in Poland and the use of political repression. On the first day of the strike dock workers in Gdansk sat in a circle at the shipyard and wrote the most urgent demands of the workers on a 4 x 8 plywood sheet. The sheet is now a centerpiece of the Solidarność museum Gdansk.
