- Summary:
- Colin Chambers, Emeritus Professor of Drama at Kingston University, provides an overview of Antonin Artaud's Theatre of Cruelty. Exploring its history, theory and practice, and referring to key practitioners who have been instrumental in its development, such as Peter Brook, Chambers examines how Theatre of Cruelty aims to shock its audiences and evoke emotional responses by abandoning traditional methods of theatre-making.
