The Routledge Companion to Jacques Lecoq: Routledge Companions

Editat de Mark Evans, Rick Kemp
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 aug 2018
The Routledge Companion to Jacques Lecoq presents a thorough overview and analysis of Jacques Lecoq's life, work and philosophy of theatre. Through an exemplary collection of specially commissioned chapters from leading writers, specialists and practitioners, it draws together writings and reflections on his pedagogy, his practice, and his influence on the wider theatrical environment. It is a comprehensive guide to the work and legacy of one of the major figures of Western theatre in the second half of the twentieth century. In a four-part structure over fifty chapters, the book examines:
  • The historical, artistic and social context out of which Lecoq's work and pedagogy arose, and its relation to such figures as Jacques Copeau, Antonin Artaud, Jean-Louis Barrault, and Dario Fo.
  • Core themes of Lecoq's International School of Theatre, such as movement, play, improvisation, masks, language, comedy, and tragedy, investigated by former teachers and graduates of the School.
  • The significance and value of his pedagogical approaches in the context of contemporary theatre practices.
  • The diaspora of performance practice from the School, from the perspective of many of the most prominent artists themselves.
This is an important and authoritative guide for anyone interested in Lecoq's work.
