The Decroux Sourcebook

Sobre el libro The Decroux Sourcebook de Franc Chamberlain i Thomas Leabhart publicado por Routledge al 2008:

The Decroux Sourcebook is the first point of reference for any student of the ´hidden master´ of twentieth century theatre. This book collates a wealth of key material on Etienne Decroux, including: an English translation of Patrice Pezin´s Imaginary Interview , in which Decroux discusses mime´s place in the theatre; previously unpublished articles by Decroux from France´s Bibiotheque Nationale; and essays from Decroux´s fellow innovators Eugenio Barba and Edward Gordon Craig, explaining the synthesis of theory and practice in his work. Etienne Decroux´s pioneering work in physical theatre is here richly illustrated not only by a library of source material, but also with a gallery of images following his life, work and influences. The Decroux Sourcebook is an ideal companion to Thomas Leabhart´s Etienne Decroux in the Routledge Performance Practitioners series, offering key primary and secondary resources to those conducting research at all levels.
