NOW A BROADWAY PLAY STARRING DANIEL RADCLIFFE 'Provocative, maddening and compulsively readable' Maggie Nelson In 2003, American essayist John D'Agata wrote a piece for Harper's about Las Vegas's alarmingly high suicide rate, after a sixteen-year-old boy had thrown himself from the top of the Stratosphere Tower. The article he delivered, 'What Happens There', was rejected by the magazine for inaccuracies. But it was soon picked up by another, who assigned it a fact checker: their fresh-faced intern, and recent Harvard graduate, Jim Fingal. What resulted from that assignment, and beyond the essay's eventual publication in the magazine, was seven years of arguments, negotiations, and revisions as D'Agata and Fingal struggled to navigate the boundaries of literary nonfiction. This book includes an early draft of D'Agata's essay, along with D'Agata and Fingal's extensive discussion around the text. The Lifespan of a Fact is a brilliant and eye-opening meditation on the relationship between 'truth' and 'accuracy', and a penetrating conversation about whether it is appropriate for a writer to substitute one for the other. 'A fascinating and dramatic power struggle over the intriguing question of what nonfiction should, or can, be' Lydia Davis
First published in 1997. ‘Anthropocosmic Theater is a name which covers a deep theatrical proposition which gives back to dramatic space its participatory capacity. The research, design and production of participatory theatre offers the spectator a cultural dynamic which, with five minutes of instruction, trains him and sustains him so that he can have his own experience because at this stage of evolution we cannot ignore the fact that the vitality and internal spell of any artist manifestation is no longer the heritage of any particular group or clan, but rests beneath the skin of any human being. The participatory dynamics contained in this book are the fruit of fifteen years wok at the UNAM's Taller de Investigacion Teatral’- Nicolas Nunez. This text traces Nunez's research with Grotowski and Strasberg, at the Old Vic in London and in Nahuatlan and Tibetan theatre, to arrive at his design for a unique participatory theatre form. A textbook for students of theatre in Mexico, this volume provides a practical guide to Nunez's ritual/theatrical 'actions' as well as supplying a philosophical context for a work which has resounding implication for theatre in contemporary life.

As an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and a father, Harry Potter struggles with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs while his youngest son, Albus, finds the weight of the family legacy difficult to bear.
Focusing on the work of painter, choreographer and scenic designer Oskar Schlemmer, the "Master Magician" and leader of the Theatre Workshop, this book explains this "theatre of high modernism" and its historical role in design and performance studies; further, it connects the Bauhaus exploration of space with contemporary stages and contemporary ethics, aesthetics and society. The idea of "theatre of space" is used to highlight twentieth-century practitioners who privilege the visual, aural, and plastic qualities of the stage above character, narrative and, themes (for example Schlemmer himself, Robert Wilson, Tadeusz Kantor, Robert Lepage). This impressive volume will be of use to students and academics involved in the areas of twentieth-century performance, the history of performance art, the history of avant-garde theatre, modern German theatre, and Weimar-era performance.
