Review

Richard Schechners work is crucial. His thoughts always renew my desire to change the world..
–Guillermo Gómez-Peña, performance artist and writer, San Francisco, USA

This useful volume sets up lively possibilities for exploring the entire spectrum....an enterprising spirit that now defines performance studies..
–Herbert Blau, Byron and Alice L. Lockwood Professor of the Humanities, University of Washington, Seattle, USA

An appropriately broad-ranging, challenging, and provocative introduction, equally important for practicing artists as for students and scholars of the performing arts..
–Phillip Zarrilli, University of Exeter, UK

This isnt merely the musings of a theatre director who never stops innovating. It is a global thinkers striking, historic way of understanding human nature from a surprisingly practical perspective, which can be adapted in countless areas at numerous levels..
–Sun Huizhu, Professor of Drama, Shanghai Theatre Academy, Japan

Exactly what I have longed for. It provides linkages between concepts, gives historical perspective, and explains theoretical ideas in a language accessible to undergraduate students. It will be required reading..
–Takahashi Yuichiro, Professor of Performance Studies, Dokkyo University, Japan

4.0étoiles sur 5 Where Theatre Studies Needs to Go, Avril 16 2003
Par D. Sidwell (River Heights, UT USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This long awaited book by Richard Schechner breaks the traditional boundaries of how theatre is to be studied. He assures us through numerous examples, comments, quotations, and theories how interrelated theatre is with life and life with theatre. To see performance as a part of life and as an extension of it is to see performance with a clarity that has never before been discussed in such depth.

By the end of the book, which is probably more useful as a reference than even as a textbook that students read chapter by chapter (though it does offer great possibilities for creatively integrating in the classroom as it was intended), one has more questions than answers, and that is a good thing, because the questions become more focused and more relevant and more conducive to individual introspection. As a college professor in Theatre, I find that refreshing and valuable.

This is a seminal work, and should certainly be on every theatre practitioner's bookshelf, if not in their hands.

The book contains nudity and language in the examples of performance he gives, so is not suitable for children.
