The Theater ExperienceMcGraw-Hill, 1991 - 504 pàgines Wilson's text is neither a history nor a "how to" book but it includes an abundance of solid information and stress is on the encounter between audience and performers (assumption: its reader make attendance at performances an integral part of the course). The aim of this text is to analyze and explain what theater is about - what goes on in theater and what it means to the viewer. Since the encounter between those who create theater and those who view it is at its heart, the crucial role of the audience (that exchange between the creators and viewers in theater) is dealt with throughout the text. Every effort has made to relate theater to experiences already familiar to the student (analogues) and in its approach, writing style and organization, this text is not only informative but also pleasurable for teachers and students alike. |
