In this new and updated edition of his well-known study, readers will gain insight into a key period of theatrical history and the life of one of its most fascinating individuals.

Examining the development of avant garde theatre from the 1890s up to the present day, this book exposes a central paradox of modern theatre; that the motivating force of theatrical experimentation is primitivism. This is central to understanding political and aesthetic aspects of modern theatre.
