  aș a middle-class kid. That’s pretty much what the class conflict meant to me în the early ‘90s. It’s not like I think about this stuff every day. Still, it was the ‘90s... ancient history. The thing is some friends of mine asked me a while back if I was OK with being on cameră în a mini-interview on the “mineriade” (the coal miners’ attempts to storm Bucharest în the 1990s).

I remember his portrayal of president Iliescu was really funny - that distinct way of speaking... and Miron Cozma (the leader of the miners) was saying some funny nonsense. That was pretty much it.

Some say the theater should talk about beautiful things, not embark on a social critique. People have to see the other side of life, too.

They have been funding and supported NGO work în Kenya and în some sectors have done tremendously well.
