Synopsis
In these four lectures Peter Hall reveals a lifetime of discoveries about classical theatre, Shakespeare, opera and modern drama. The central argument is that form and structured language paradoxically give freedom to power of thought and feeling, much as the masks of early Greek drama enabled actors to express extreme emotion. The mask may take many forms – the precise language of Beckett and Pinter, the classical form of Mozart’s operas, or Shakespeare’s verse. Reprinted to form part of the Oberon Masters series, a brand new collection of attractive hardbacks on key themes within the arts written by leading lights in each subject.

Revue de presse
This is a fascinating analysis that will undoubtedly provoke thought in anybody who reads it.... he moves on to some thoughts about how desperate is the need for Theatre in today's society. This leads to a plea to politicians to recognise its value, which is even more timely following the recent announcement of such swathing cuts to the Arts Council's budget. Exposed by the Mask is quite a short book but is filled with wisdom and would make a perfect gift for anybody interested in theatre, whether as a practitioner or spectator.
