Peter Brook is perhaps contemporary theatre's greatest inventor and is one of the most influential directors Britain has ever produced. For over 30 years he has held audiences spellbound with his critically acclaimed productions.
In 'The Open Circle' Brook provides extensive material as he and his designers present the story of those years in words and pictures, describing the gestation and completion of his many works through the spaces they occupied all over the world. From France to Africa, in New York, Glasgow and Japan, Brook and his collaborators show how the spaces have shaped the cultural and political meaning of his productions.
