Quick Overview

Paperback: 204 pages
Publisher: Routledge; 1 edition (6 Feb. 2018)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0815396899


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 significant 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 first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners are an invaluable resource for students and scholars.
