Bertolt Brecht - Routledge Performance Practitioners
Meg Mumford
Bertolt Brecht?s methods of collective experimentation, and his unique framing of the theatrical event as a forum for change, placed him among the most important contributors to the theory and practice of theatre. His work continues to have a signi?cant impact on performance practitioners, critics and teachers alike. Now revised and reissued, this book combines:
an overview of the key periods in Brecht?s life and work a clear explanation of his key theories, including the renowned ideas of Gestus and Verfremdung an account of his groundbreaking 1954 production of The Caucasian Chalk Circle an in-depth analysis of his practical exercises and rehearsal methods.As a ?rst step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitionersare an invaluable resource for students and scholars.
