editorialreviews

In this passionate and controversial work, director and critic Rustom Bharucha presents the first major anti-imperialist critique of today's multicultural theatre movement, and does so from a Third World perspective. Bharucha questions the assumptions underlying the theatrical visions of some of the twentieth century's most prominent theatre practitioners and theorists, including Antonin Artaud, Jerzy Grotowski, Eugenio Barba and Peter Brook. He contends that Indian theatre has been grossly mythologized and misinterpreted by Western directors and critics, and questions the ethics of representation in these cross-cultural borrowings. As an anecdote to this problem, Bharucha presents a detailed, dramaturgical analysis of what he describes as an intracultural theatre project that provides an alternative vision of the possibilities of true cultural pluralism.
