ISBN: 9780804700757 / Angielski / Twarda / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9789004168282 / Angielski / Twarda / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The author aims to show how Gao's theories of the theatre of anti-illusion, theatre of conscious convention, of the "poor theatre" and total theatre, of the neutral actor and the actor - jester - storyteller are derived from the Far Eastern tradition, and to what extent they have been inspired by 20th century Euro-American reformers of theatre such as Antonin Artaud, Bertolt Brecht, Vsevolod...
