See That My Grave is Kept Clean
See That My Grave is Kept Clean by Gary Aylesworth is a timely and relevant work that brings to life two historical figures that shaped the modern world. Edward Bernays and Harry Smith exerted tremendous influence in the economic and cultural spheres in the 20th century. See That My Grave is Kept Clean examines the biographies of two men who lived diametrically opposed lives. The juxtaposition of these two forces in culture, politics, and economics gives a view into the hidden battle for the soul of America.
See That My Grave is Kept Clean marks Aylesworth's return to the theater after working as a Waldorf class teacher for the last ten years. This play grew out of his experience with Anthroposophy and Rudolf Steiner's famous sculpture The Representative of Man. In the sculpture, the universal human is poised between the forces of expansion and contraction, Lucifer and Ahriman, two forces that underlie the human being and evolutionary history. Aylesworth juxtaposed the biographies of Edward L. Bernays and Harry Smith to reflect the sculpture's forces and to shed light on the economic, cultural, and political powers that shape our lives today.
