State Authenticity

The human possibility to be realized in a scene, even where it is highly theatrical, may also be defined by the extent to which a scene affirms a sense of rootedness, confirming or reshaping the primordial identity of their members. Participants may seek the pleasure of having a common sense of what makes for a real or genuine experience. Authenticity is the pleasure of identity, the affirmation of who we are at bottom and what it means to be genuine and real rather than fake and phony.
