(FROM THE INTRODUCTION)
David Barnett invites readers, students and theatre-makers to discover
new ways of apprehending and making use of
Brecht
in this clear and
accessible study of
Brechťs
theories and practices. The book analyses
how
Brechťs
Ideas can come alive in rehearsal and performance, and
reveals fust how carefully
Brecht
realized his vision of a politicized,
interventionist theatre.
What emerges is a nuanced understanding of
Brechťs
concepts, his work
with actors and his approaches to directing. The reader is ««couraged
to engage with his method which sought to make theatre politically · in
order to appreciate the innovations he introduced into Ms stagecraft.
Barnett provides many examples of how
Brechťs
ideas can be staged,
and the final chapter examines two very different plays: one written by
Brecht
and one by a playwright with no acknowledged connection to
Brecht.
Through an interrogation of The
Resistito*
Шѕт
of
Arturo
Ui
and Patrick
МагЬегЧ
doser.
Barnett asks how a Brechtlan approach can
enliven and illuminate production.
DAVID BARNETT is Reader in Drama, Theatre and Performance at the
University of Sussex, UK.
