Reverberation Machines: The Later Plays and Essays

Richard Foreman

4/5 ( ratings)

Drama. One of the most original minds ever to grace the American theater, Richard Foreman is one of the few artists today whose inimitable style of presentation has retained its authentic status and momentum within the spirited trajectories of the avant-garde. Foreman describes his own work as a "polyphonic theater in which all elements work to fragment each other so that the spectator is relatively free from empathy and identification and instead may savor the full 'playfulness' of theatrical elements, even though the subject matter of these plays is anguished and aggressive in the extreme. My goal has always been to transcend very painful' material with the dance of manic theatricality."
