Читать книгу The Marowitz Compendium - Charles Marowitz - Страница 19

This is Marowitz’s production journal from he and Peter Brook’s groundbreaking RSC experimental Theatre of Cruelty season. This work subsequently gave birth to the legendary RSC production of Marat/Sade. In the main this happened by way of a sketch in the Theatre of Cruelty season, about Christine Keeler and Jackie Kennedy. The Theatre of Cruelty season and Marat/Sade were particularly important in representing an intersection between experimental theory and a new radicalism at the time. Marat/Sade by all accounts was an unforgettable production, was filmed, and remains a signal event in post-war British theatre. It changed the lives of many people who saw it, including future innovative artists such as Mike Leigh and David Hare.
