About this title

Review

"I have the assurance of Nicolas Nunez's special capacities in Theatre and the Rite Research field." -Jerzy Grotowski "The efforts of Nicolas Nunez and his theatre group have a special interest which I would dare to call essential: re-discovering the inspiration of ancient rituals." -Octavio Paz

Synopsis

In this work the author traces his researches with Grotowski and Strasberg, at the Old Vic in London, and in Nahuatlan and Tibetan theatre to arrive at his design for a unique participatory theatre form. The text also provides a practical guide to the author's ritual/theatrical "actions" as well as supplying a philosophical context for this work.
