From Guerrilla Mime to Brecht & Ecology: An Interview with Ron G. Davis

Rudy joins Dr. Ron G. Davis, founder of the San Francisco Mime Troupe in 1959, for a reflection of a life in art and politics. We discuss the SFMT’s beginnings during the civil rights era, how it turned into a “guerilla” operation, the relationship to Teatro Campesino, civil rights and the black radical movement, why his time with the SFMT came to an end, and the influence of Brecht and his PhD work on a Brechtian ecology.
