Sound experimentation by avant-garde theatre artists of the
late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries is an important but
largely ignored aspect of theatre history. In this book, Curtin
shows how attention to this activity enhances our understanding of
artistic practice (modernism) and historical circumstance
(modernity) and considers how avant-gardists staged sonic modernity
by exploring its conceptual and communicative possibilities as well
as its experiential realities. He critically examines avant-garde
theatre through a composite analysis of dramatic texts, historical
productions, sound recordings, philosophical speculations, and
social movements.
