The pound-for-pound, undefeated, baddest man in the land believed he would walk out of Vegas on Saturday victorious, not just the king of the sport and first man ever to be an undisputed champ at two divisions in the four-belt era; but also a proud piscator after he guts the “Big Fish” Errol Spence Jr. in a title fight some of us merely dream of witnessing.

In Berlin, along with the German director Erwin Piscator, Brecht created what became known as “epic theater,” or “dialectical theater,” which asked audiences to confront sociopolitical issues rather than suspend disbelief and be swept away.

And the only way to get on that stage was to move to New York City in 1943, where she studied with Erwin Piscator at the Dramatic Workshop and was taken to a strip club by Marlon Brando.

In Paris, and later back in New York, she studied theater, movement and visual art with eminences including the stage director Erwin Piscator, the actor and mime Jean-Louis Barrault and the Abstract Expressionist Hans Hofmann.

Ms. Malina worked as a singing waitress in a Greenwich Village bar and eventually enrolled in Piscator’s workshop at the New School for Social Research.
