Makers of Modern Theatre: An Introduction

FROM THE PUBLISHER

The key theatre-makers who shaped the drama of the last century are Konstantin Stanislavksy, Vsevolod Meyerhold, Bertolt Brecht and Antonin Artaud. Robert Leach's Makers of Modern Theatre is the first detailed introduction to the work of these practitioners. In it, Leach focuses on the major issues which relate to their dominance of theatre history: what was significant in their life and times; what is their main legacy; what were their dramatic philosophies and practices; how have their ideas been adapted since their deaths; and what are the current critical perspectives on their work.

SYNOPSIS
