5.0 out of 5 stars A freeing work from a brilliant actor/scholar., August 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Tricks of the Trade (Theatre Arts (Routledge Paperback)) (Paperback)
In this book Dario Fo articulates the relationship between actor and audience in a way only someone who has accepted the physical and mental demands of the acting craft can do. Fo demonstrates he is one part actor, one part scholar, and one part inspired artist. Each page illustrates the line between how an actor acts and their audience cannot be separated from themselves, their society, or from the history of the craft. If nothing else, Fo's joy in performance helps explain why actors remain central to entertainment and to society.

I plan to buy it for my daughter - a fledgling Commedia artist.
