Join Anne Bogart and Barbara Lanciers in conversation with Double Edge Theatre founder Stacy Klein about her new book Alchemy of Living Culture: Collected Writings on Double Edge Theatre.
This volume captures the theatrical and cultural practice to have come out of Double Edge Theatre, which was founded in 1982. It showcases the company’s dedication to collective artistic creativity, cultural survival, and sustained, equitable organization-building, with Klein’s artistic and social vision at its center.
Featuring interviews, artists’ statements, essays, and speeches in which Klein articulates the mission of Double Edge Theatre as it evolves, the volume captures the democratic spirit and boundary-pushing theatrical work the company has championed. An Alchemy of Living Culture offers first-hand insights into the pragmatic, as well as the visionary, aspects of experimental creation and speaks to a broad and multi-national community of theatremakers.
