Tadeusz Kantor by Noel Witts, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Tadeusz Kantor ¿ a theoretician, director, innovator and painter famed for his very visual theatre style ¿ was a key figure in European avant-garde theatre. He was also known for his challenging theatrical innovations, such as extending stages and the combination of mannequins with living actors. The book combines: a detailed study of the historical context of Kantor¿s work an exploration of Kantor¿s own writings on his theatrical craft a stylistic analysis of the key works, including The Dead Class and Let the Artists Die, and their critical reception an examination of the practical exercises devised by Kantor. As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners offer unbeatable value for today¿s student. | Tadeusz Kantor by Noel Witts, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
