Well, look, it only matters if it matters. Theater can be art, or on the other end of the spectrum, it can be trivial. If it's trivial to you, it doesn't matter, and so none of this discussion matters. If you think theater isn't trivial, then it does matter, and yes, things like this are dangerous.
No, no, not dangerous in terms of "Oh God, we cast Vladimir in Waiting for Godot as a small Asian woman and now I'm going to lose an arm" (though perhaps the Beckett Society has become more violent these days...), but when I read pheelyks saying "dangerous," my mind jumped to a Peter Brook-style interpretation in the way of Deadly Theater. (Check out The Empty Space if you haven't and are curious.)

If you get Good Omens before a bomb goes off, you need a new fortune teller.
I translated this myself (or maybe I used Bing), but I am pretty sure Schoko-bons means "shocking bombs." You know what happens when a bomb goes off? Lots of stuff gets moved, and lives are changed, by creating an Empty Space in a manner most deadly, hole-y, rough, and immediate. The Intent to Live makes little difference in a Blood Crime of this magnitude. If the bomb is big enough, it turns a world into a ring of debris. And we all look something like this, our only Legacies a change jar scattered across the solar system.
