The Chemistry of the Theatre: Performativity of Time

Autor Jerzy Limon
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 sep 2010
This innovative, theoretical work focuses on temporal issues in theatre and the 'chemistry' of theatre - the ways in which a variety of factors in performance combine to make up what we call 'theatre'. Discussing a range of canonical plays, from Shakespeare to Beckett, the book makes a unique contribution to theatre and performance studies.

Recenzii

This is a truly groundbreaking account of theater's chemistry, especially as it relates to time, space, and affect. Having been the Artistic Director of the Gda?sk International Shakespeare Festival for over 14 years, where many of the world's best theatre companies and directors present their work, Limon really knows contemporary theater. He brings this knowledge to this book with remarkable ingenuity and eloquence. The Chemistry of the Theatre is a spectacular accomplishment and a major contribution to theatre studies. - Professor Bryan Reynolds, University of California, Irvine, USA
