Recycling Shakespeare by Charles Marowitz

Recycling Shakespeare by Charles Marowitz

In the same way that Shakespeare himself continued to meditate and transform his own ideas and the shape they took, Marowitz gives us license to continue that meditation in productions extrapolated from Shakespeare's work. Shakespeare becomes the greatest of all catalysts who stimulates a constant re-formulation of the fundamental questions of philosophy, history and meaning. Marowitz introduces us to Shakespeare as an active contemporary collaborator who strives with us to yield a vibrant contemporary theatre.

Charles Marowitz is the artistic director of the Malibu Stage Company and co-director of the Royal Shakespeare Company Experimental Group with Peter Brook. Many West End productions under his direction include world debuts of works by Saul Bellow, Joe Orton, and Sam Shepard. His free Shakespeare adaptations have been published all around the world and compiled in The Marowitz Shakespeare. Marowitz has served as the Los Angeles Times' Drama Critic in Chief. He has been a contributor to a number of periodicals, including the Herald Examiner. He has also taught Professional Acting Seminars at Heidelberg, Stuttgart, Wiesabden, Oslo, and Stockholm, as well as colleges, universities, and drama schools around the United Kingdom.
