- English abstract
- ‘“Otro” teatro español’ is a 196,000-word book (excluding bibliography) that challenges established opinions on twentieth- and twenty-first-century Spanish theatre in considering the roles of actors, directors and companies who have impacted upon both the practice and the perception of Spanish, and European, stages. In examining the work of six carefully chosen case studies (Margarita Xirgu, Enrique Rambal, María Casares, Nuria Espert, Lluís Pasqual and La Cubana) the book provides a revisionist interpretation of a nation’s theatrical culture, prioritising the material aspects of stage practice rather than dramatic literature of the better-known playwrights who have dominated earlier histories of Spanish theatre.
