5.0 out of 5 stars A Pleasure to Read
This book presents a clear and concise analysis of Dario Fo's performance art. It explains how Fo's theater is based on popular forms, focusing on techniques, such as improvisation, and how Fo uses grotesque comedy as a weapon for political and social change. It is a pleasure to read.
