Book details

La 4e de couv. porte : "Peter Brook and Ariane Mnouchkine are among the most important directors in recent theatre history. This book focuses on two of their landmark productions, 'Mahabharata' (1985) and 'Les Atrides' (1992-1994) respectively, in order to uncover parallel methodologies in the transfer of ancient mythological narratives to the contemporary French stage. It investigates audiences' relationship with these works re-told, questioning their/our relationship to heritage, at a time when marketing departments and politicians re-hash the same old stories to cajole would-be consumers and voters."
