An invaluable collection of documents and discussions of the work of one of the most significant theatre practitioners of the last fifty years.
This unique set of reminiscences, written by one of the actors who worked closely with Kantor over a long period of time, ranges from the anecdotal to the theoretical. Kantor's work offers some of the most disconcerting allegories of Modernism and a quintessential expression of the unconscious during a bitter period of human history. Kantor's stern but affectionate guardianship of his troupe of travelling players comes off Miklaszewski's pages with warmth, humanity and humour.

Industry Reviews

'We should be grateful for this text ... [it] takes us to the heart of Kantor's creative choices and processes and serves well the reader who has perhaps tried to penetrate Kantor's rather esoteric manifestos cold - and given up. It also helps to have such a guide if this is your first meeting with Kantor. Through his various strategies and choice of document, Miklaszewski paints a dynamic picture of this thoughtful genius and egoist.' - Contemporary Theatre Review
