Description - Richard Foreman by Gerald Rabkin
A discussion of the work of playwright and director Richard Foreman. The anthology includes a collection of reviews tracing Foreman's reception from the 1960s to today, a series of informative interviews, a selection of critical essays, and a selection of Foreman's writings (including the complete text of "My Head Was a Sledgehammer"). The book also offers a chronology of Foreman's career, a bibliography and 20 photographs from his plays. Gerald Rabkin's introduction traces the development of Foreman's career and places his contributions within the context of post-1950s experimental theatre. From Foreman's founding of the Ontological-Hysteric Theater in 1968, to his artistic and personal partnership with Kate Manheim, to his company's move to the historic theatre at Saint Mark's Church in the 1990s, the work chronicles the remarkable vision and singular voice of one of America's most important theatre artists.
