Description - Yevgeny Vakhtangov by Andrei Malaev-Babel

Routledge Performance Practitioners is a series of introductory guides to the key theatre-makers of the last century. Each volume explains the background to and the work of one of the major influences on twentieth and twenty-first-century performance. These compact and clearly written books will unravel the contributions of modern theatre's most charismatic innovators. Yevgeny Vakhtangov was a pioneering theatre artist who married Stanislavski's demands for inner truth and sincerity with a quest for an imaginative form for every role and production. This is the first book to combine: - an overview of Vakhtangov's life, work and influences - an exploration of his key ideas, including the concept of Fantastic Realism - accounts of his key productions, methods and training practices - exercises developed by Vakhtangov and still taught at the Vakhtangov Institute in Moscow. As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners are unbeatable value for today's student.
