Book Description
Excerpt from The Theatre of Tomorrow N o movement in the theatre has ever been Simple enough for the purposes of the pigeonhole. Giants like Hugo and Ibsen may serve as expressions Of the ro mantic and the realistic movements Of the nineteenth century. But they have acquired stature through the passage Of time, and about them in their own day stood playwrights, actors and producers now forgotten from whom and to whom impulse flowed in the web Of con temporary effort. The new stagecraft has its giant Gordon Craig - a giant who will grow greater in as peet as he and his contemporaries fade into the past. Yet it would be a reckless critic who would lay upon Craig alone the origination Of a movement which Sprang up in imperfect form at half a dozen points in Europe during the years before and after 1900.

The Chinese Lady
Author: Lloyd Suh
Publisher: Dramatists Play Service, Inc.
ISBN: 0822239906
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
Afong Moy is fourteen years old when she’s brought to the United States from Guangzhou Province in 1834. Allegedly the first Chinese woman to set foot on U.S. soil, she has been put on display for the American public as “The Chinese Lady.” For the next half-century, she performs for curious white people, showing them how she eats, what she wears, and the highlight of the event: how she walks with bound feet. As the decades wear on, her celebrated sideshow comes to define and challenge her very sense of identity. Inspired by the true story of Afong Moy’s life, THE CHINESE LADY is a dark, poetic, yet whimsical portrait of America through the eyes of a young Chinese woman.

Luigi Pirandello in the Theatre
Author: Susan Bassnett
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134351143
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
First Published in 1993. Contemporary Theatre Studies is a book series of special interest to everyone involved in theatre. This collection of documents is the first attempt in English to bring together a body of material on Luigi Pirandello as multi-faceted man of the theatre. Because relatively few of his works have been easily available to English language readers, he is thought of most frequently as a playwright, the author of Six Characters in Search of an Author and Henry IV in particular, and his contribution to theatre, both in theory and in practice, has tended to be overlooked. Emphasising his role as a director, the book traces the rise and fall of his own theatre company, the Teatro d’Arte where he struggled to instil new practices and comments on Pirandello’s attempts during the years of Fascism to give Italy a national theatre in a European context.
