MoreLong description:
This account, analysis and critical evaluation of the work of Appia demonstrates how his far-sighted imagination also embraced the fundamental reform of scenic design, the use of theatrical space, and a greatly expanded conception of the nature and possibilities of theatrical art.
"Excellent and well written, this study is well focused, and will reward anyone interested in the development of the modern theatre."
"...the first major study of Appia in twenty years...it is a clear-eyed examination of Appia's many innovations."
