Description
Routledge Performance Practitioners is a series of introductory guides to the important thing theatre-makers of the last century. Every volume explains the background to and the work of one of the crucial major influences on twentieth- and twenty-first-century performance.
These compact, well-illustrated and clearly written books will get to the bottom of the contribution of brand new theatre’s most charismatic innovators. Etienne Decroux is the first book to mix:
- an overview of Decroux’s life and work
- an analysis of Decroux’s “Words on Mime”, the first book to be written about this art
- a series of practical exercises offering an introduction to corporeal mime technique.
As a first step towards crucial working out, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, number one research, Routledge Performance Practitioners are unbeatable value for as of late’s student.
