Von der hinteren Coverseite

Peter Brook is regarded as one of the most important and influential directors today. In this fascinating study, Albert Hunt and Geoffrey Reeves chronicle Brook's development beginning with his earliest productions and concluding with some of his most recent and innovative work. As Associate Director to Peter Brook on a number of important productions, Geoffrey Reeves was able to observe at first hand many of the director's rehearsal and performance methods. Both Reeves and Hunt are established directors themselves and can offer special insight into Brook's techniques. The book traces the director's work from the Birmingham Repertory Theatre to the Royal Shakespeare Company, the establishment of his own company and theatre at the Bouffes du Nord in Paris, and the creation of his unique theatrical style. Reeves and Hunt also focus on Brook outside the theatre including the film version of his Mahabharata and work for the opera house. The book will be of interest to theatre practitioners, students and scholars as well as to the general reader. It includes a chronology of Brook's theatre career and is illustrated with photographs from key productions.
