The choice of these four dramatists as the subjects of...

Avant Garde Theatre: 1892-1992
ISBN: 9780415065184 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Examining the development of avant garde theatre from its inception in the 1890s right up to the present day, Christopher Innes exposes a central paradox of modern theatre; that the motivating force of theatrical experimentation is primitivism. What links the work of Strindberg, Artaud, Brook and Mnouchkine is an idealisation of the elemental and a desire to find ritual in archaic traditions. This widespread primitivism is the key to understanding both the political and aesthetic aspects of modern theatre and provides fresh insights into contemporary social trends.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This is an assessment of the work and influence as a director of Jacques Copeau (1879 1949), who has long been regarded as one of the fathers of twentieth-century French theatre. Along with Antoine and his own pupils Dullin and Jouvet, Copeau is known to have been instrumental in restoring the traditional values of theatre at the same time as seeking, through training and experiment, a vital contemporary function. The work of Brook's company and research centre in Paris today is, for example, in direct descent from that of Copeau. John Rudlin examines the course of Copeau's directorial...
