Synopsis
Excerpt from Theatre: The Rediscovery of Style
Howbeit, there was something to me about his theory that provoked an interest and a fascination which no charge of failure could have diminished, and it was with the freshest kind of faith that I again placed myself entirely happily in his hands for his production of Oedipus. I have never been an actor who cares much for being extemporised upon by a director, rather fancy ing that I could do that all right for myself, but I would always respect a plan, and Michel''s plans were things of rare precision. If required to move exactly two feet three inches in any direction on a certain word I found it more amusing and stimulating to rest confident that the reason and the truth in the direction would be apparent in two or three days'' time, than to question it then and there.

This book explores the relationship between classical theatre and modern realism, drawing upon the authorââ â¢s long and distinguished career working with renowned theatre companies and institutions in both France and England. The book delves into the history of French classicism, tracing its roots back to the ancient Greeks and Romans and analyzing its impact on French theatre traditions.

The book also touches upon the authorââ â¢s personal experiences and observations about the changing landscape of theatre throughout his career.
