The resident repertory company in Cambridge, Massachusetts, affiliated with Harvard and known as the American Repertory Theatre, has long been considered one of the country's most innovative cultural resources. The quality of its productions and the issues it has raised about the nature of the creative life have distinguished it among American theatre groups. Here is a treasury of criticism, reflection, observation, and insight from the ART's post-production symposia, and pre-show talks, illustrated with photographs and drawings from ART archives.

The resident repertory company in Cambridge, Massachusetts, affiliated with Harvard and known as the American Repertory Theatre, has long been considered one of the country's most innovative cultural resources. The quality of its productions and the issues it has raised about the nature of the creative life have distinguished it among American theatre groups. Here is a treasury of criticism, reflection, observation, and insight from the ART's post-production symposia, and pre-show talks, illustrated with photographs and drawings from ART archives. The notable contributors include a great many brilliant poets, novelists, dramatists, critics, scholars, lawyers, theatre directors, designers, and clowns, many of the Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winners. Whether Susan Sontag reflects on Milan Kundera's Jacques and His Master, or Jonathan Miller on Sheridan's School for Scandal, or Jan Kott on Hamlet, or Carlos Fuentes on Calderon's Life is a Dream, or Derek Walcott on his musical Steel, or Harold Bloom on Ibsen's Hedda Gabbler, or Anatole Smeliansky on Bulgakov's Black Snow, the discourse is heightened and passionate. The book also includes revealing interviews with major theatrical figures-Dario Fo, Philip Glass, Robert Wilson, Andrei Serban, David Mamet, and many others-and lively articles from the ART's founding artistic director Robert Brustein, its managing director Robert J. Orchard, and a variety of literary directors and dramaturges. In all, The Lively A.R.T. is a bountiful theatre experience, better than two on the aisle.
