Product Description
The influence of Jerzy Grotowski's work on twentieth century theatre is undeniable. A key player in making his work known was The Drama Review, and now, for the first time, 30 years' worth of articles by and about Grotowski are gathered together to shed light on the work of this enigmatic, influential director.
Separate introductions by Richard Schechner and Lisa Wolford provide the framework and place Grotowski and the wide range of writings about him into context. The Grotowski Sourcebook includes seminal articles by key practitioners and theorists, six pieces by Grotowski himself and previously unpublished interviews. With its coverage of each phase of Grotowski's long and varied career, and the inclusion of photographs documenting Grotowski and his followers in action, The Sourcebook offers the most comprehensive look at the man to date. Contributors include Eugenio Barba, Peter Brooks, Jan Kott, Eric Bentley, and Jennifer Kumiega.
