Description
Brecht in Practice: Theatre, Theory and Performance
David Barnett offers a clear and accessible study of Brecht's theories and practices, exploring how his ideas can be applied to rehearsal and performance.
The book provides many examples of how Brecht's concepts can be staged, and examines two plays - one written by Brecht and another by Patrick Marber - to illustrate the potential of a Brechtian approach in production.
