The Stakes Today. 330 $aDirectors have long been the main figures on Eastern European stages. During the last three decades some of the most outstanding among them have risen to international stardom thanks to their ground-breaking productions that speak to audiences far beyond local borders. Not by chance, a considerable number of these directors have won the second-biggest theatre award on the continent - the European Prize for (New) Theatrical Realities. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the top directors of the region have been pushing contemporary theatre as a whole ahead into new territories. This book offers informative and in-depth portraits of twenty of these directors, written by leading critics, scholars, and researchers, who shed light on the directors' signature styles with examples of their emblematic productions and outline the reasons for their impact. In addition, in two chapters the selected directors themselves discuss their artistic family trees as well as the main stakes theatrefaces today. The book will be of interest to theatre scholars, students, and anybody engaged with theatre on a global scale. 606 $aTheater 606 $aTheater$xProduction and direction 606 $aActors 606 $aTheater$xHistory 606 $aGlobal and International Theatre and Performance 606 $aTheatre Direction and Production 606 $aPerformers and Practitioners 606 $aContemporary Theatre and Performance 606 $aTheatre History 615 0$aTheater. 615 0$aTheater$xProduction and direction. 615 0$aActors. 615 0$aTheater$xHistory. 615 14$aGlobal and International Theatre and Performance. 615 24$aTheatre Direction and Production. 615 24$aPerformers and Practitioners. 615 24$aContemporary Theatre and Performance. 615 24$aTheatre History. 676 $a792.0233 676 $a792.0233092247 702 $aStefanova$b Kalina$f1962- 702 $aCarlson$b Marvin$f1935- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910482960703321 996 $a20 ground-breaking directors of Eastern Europe$92583718 997 $aUNINA
