It is my belief that Brooks talks about Holy Theatre as a way of getting practitioners, and patrons, to understand that true, Holy Theatre gets at truth. By this I do not mean, necessarily, universal truths, like fire is hot or ice is cold, but truths we hold inside. When we discover these truths, through theatre (and by this I mean doing or experiencing, not merely reading), we have the opportunity to be raised to a new level of understanding, a place, similar to our faith as we discover our spiritual truths, where we cannot really explain our discovery but we know it is real. Theatre, like religion, has had, and will continue to have, its false prophets, proclaiming that we must have or do something in order to please the gods/Gods. Yet, in discovering our truths, our holiness in understanding, we, ourselves fulfill that journey.
