Magnificence

Text of the day: “The poor bomber. Bomb ’em. Again and again. Right through their silver screen. Disrupt the spectacle. The obscene parade, bring it to a halt! Scatter the dolly girls, let advertisements bleed… Bomb ’em, again and again! Murderous display. An entertainment for the oppressed, so they may dance a little, take a little warmth from the sight, eh?” (Jed in Howard Brenton’s Magnificence)
