Paperback. Condición: Good. Writing at the end of his own long life, in Oedipus at Colonus Sophocles depicted his doomed hero's final hours; at the moment of his death the aged Oedipus is free at last. Envisioning this rarely performed meditation on mortality as a rousing service in a black church, Lee Breuer has created a remarkable text based on Robert Fitzgerald's splendid translation. Rearranging, simplifying, cutting here and enhancing there, Breuer has above all honored the spirit and the poetry of Sophocles's lovely work, giving it a new life in this time and place. Inspired by the joyous faith at the heart of African-American Christianity, Breuer and composer Bob Telson have turned a momentary wish of Sophocles' chorus into a central desire of Oedipus himself. I wish the wind would lift me," he sings, so I could look with the eyes of the angels." The fundamental action of The Gospel of Colonus is to lift him up" at the hour of Oedipus' death to celebrate his life, to journey through grief to triumphal resurrection. "Man," says lead actor Morgan Freeman, "this is what theatre is all about.".…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "Since the nineteen-sixties and seventies, New York's experimental-theatre scene has toned down its wild-man character, but Lee Breuer is the grand old man of the movement."The New YorkerSince he first arrived on the New York art/theatre/performance scene in 1970, Lee Breuer has been at the forefront of the American theatrical avant-garde, creating challenging works both independently and with Mabou Mines, the company he co-founded with JoAnne Akalaitis, Philip Glass, Ruth Maleczech and David Warrilow. Breuers work as a director has included celebrated stagings of Samuel Beckett, radical readings of classics including The Gospel at Colonus on Broadway in 1988, a gender-bending adaptation of King Lear in 1990, and his revolutionary reinterpretation of Ibsen with Mabou Mines Dollhouse.Theatre historian and journalist Stephen Nunns has assembled a unique look into one of American theatres most singular creative minds. Using interviews and excerpts from Breuers writings, with added historical commentary, the thrilling result is equal parts autobiography, artistic manifesto, and critical exploration. Beautifully illustrated with archival photographs, drawings, and sketches, this is a one-of-a-kind portrait of the artist and theatrical activist at work.Lee Breuer is a founding co-artistic director of Mabou Mines Theater Company in New York City. His best-known work is The Gospel at Colonus, a Pentecostal Gospel rendering of Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus. He also authored/directed Mabou Mines' trilogy, Animations, which included The B Beaver, The Red Horse, and The Shaggy Dog Animation (Obie Award for Best Play), as well as A Prelude to a Death in Venice (Obie Award for script and direction), and An Epidog, the winner of the President's Commission Kennedy Center-American Express Award for Best New Work. A revelatory new examination from one of theatres most revered avant-garde artists. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
