Peter Brook: Seeker, Philosopher, Bridge Builder

AMERICAN THEATRE: It is impossible to summarize the life and career of Peter Brook. He was 97 years old when he passed away on July 2, and for over 75 of those years he was working at the very height of the profession. His productions of Marat/Sade, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and The Mahabharata are the stuff of legend. His books The Empty Space, The Open Door, and Between Two Silences are seminal texts for actors and directors.
