The Yes Men
Early September means TBA-time, and this year my subversive theater heroes The Yes Men came town. The Yes Men impersonate the World Trade Organization through their satirical website gatt.org — so effectively that on several occasions they’ve been invited to international trade meetings, where they say outlandish things and yet often get taken seriously. A movie about the Yes Men’s exploits came out in 2003, and they’re working on another one. This dull photo of their workshop at PNCA doesn’t do justice to these creative tricksters. But it was very cool to meet them!
