Antonin Artaud - Collected Works - Volume 2

Antonin Artaud Price: $19.99

Antonin Artaud is one of the two or three most influential innovators of the 20th century, whose theories, production ideas, writings and plays have brought a new poetic impulse and dynamic intensity to the stage to replace the naturalistic theatre that preceded his own. In this volume of his collected works, we see Artaud’s early formulations of his theories on the theatre in general, and the genesis of the “theatre of cruelty”

In particular, the volume contains the famous manifestos of the revolutionary Alfred Jarry Theatre, production plans, notes and critical articles. Also included is a series of articles on literature and the plastic arts, written during the same period. The variety and humour of such a wide range of work certainly constitutes a fertile source for those seeking a new approach to theatre and its allied arts
