Theatre Production Studies

Series Editor: John Russell Brown
'(This series) ... will be welcomed by students and teachers alike.' - New Theatre Quarterly

Designed to span Western theatre from the Greeks to the present day, each book in this path-breaking series explores a period or a genre, drawing together aspects of production from staging, wardrobe, and acting styles, to the management of a theatre, its artistic team, and technical crew. Each volume focuses on several texts of exceptional achievement, and is well illustrated with contemporary material.

American Avant-Garde Theatre

The Theatres of Molière

Gerry McCarthy, University of Ulster, UK

Gerry McCarthy examines the practice and method of possibly the greatest actor-dramatist. Drawing on Molière's own brief discussions of performance and the contemporary evidence of his practice, this is a crucial addition to the debate on style and method in classical acting and on the staging of classical
plays on the contemporary stage.
