Description

Jacques Copeau was a pioneering figure in twentieth-century theatre practice, known for his innovative approaches to actor-training, physical theatre, and ensemble acting. This book provides an in-depth examination of his life and work, as well as an analysis of his key ideas.

It also includes a detailed commentary on Copeau's 1917 production of Moliere's Les Fourberies de Scapin, the opening performance of his influential New York season. The book offers practical exercises that introduce Copeau's working methods, making it an invaluable resource for students and practitioners.

With its unique blend of biography, analysis, and practical application, this book is a valuable addition to any theatre practitioner's library.
