The Great European Stage Directors
View through CrossRef
The directorial work of Vsevolod Meyerhold, Erwin Piscator and Bertolt Brecht marks an unmistakeable interest in developing the political potential of theatre in the early 20th century, although each director offered more to their actors, collaborators and spectators than simply the staging of politics and the political. This volume surveys and assesses the directors’ specific and broader contributions to theatre-making which richly exemplify the range of ways that directors address dramatic material, theatrical space and their audiences.
