In One's Own Words. Director's Copies of Nine Plays Recorded Before They Were Staged

New

How does a performance begin? How does that singular image of a literary text first emerge in the director's mind, later coming to life on stage? This book collects nine scripts of renowned performances by artist and director Dmitry Krymov.... The director's versions, recorded by the author, offer a chance to see the performance at the moment of its conception. This fascinating process, which the author himself refers to as the 'course of action', is, in fact, a play of words and imagination, which embodies the essence of the concept of the 'Laboratory of Dmitry Krymov'. The book is prefaced by an introduction from the leading historian and researcher of Russian theater and the legacy of the founders of the Moscow Art Theater, Inna Solovyova.
