This volume reveals the background to, and work of, a major influence on twentieth and twenty-first century performance. Frantic Assembly is the first book to combine:
- an overview of the history of the company since its foundation in 1994
- an analysis of the key ideas underpinning the company’s work
- a critical commentary on two key productions – Hymns by Chris O’Connell (1999) and Stockholm by Bryony Lavery (2007)
- a detailed description of a Frantic Assembly workshop, offering an introduction to how the company works.
As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners offer unbeatable value for today’s student.
