Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gordon Craig and the Theatre: A Record and an Interpretation He found a stage that was a disgrace to the beautiful drama it was occasionally called upon to harbour. He found a drama itself that cried out against its cruel and ignorant confinement in surroundings that cramped and distorted and vitiated it. These things, that other men seemed to be unaware of, this man found and saw. And out of a fancy, an inventiveness, a beauty and a skill of mind that had not been given to the theatre before him, he fashioned a theatre, a stage, and even a drama that we until his time had not known. A new theatre sprang into being. A new stage shone out before the world´s eyes. And drama that had been bound in fetters of incomprehension was suddenly released and given wings. This man, alone and opposed by a theatre with eyes that could not see, accomplished, against sneer, against blindness, against vituperation even, all this. His spirit is present on every stage to-day that makes any claim to resourcefulness, to dignity, and to grandeur.
