If the city is the theatre of urban life, how does architecture act
in its many performances? This interdisciplinary book reconstructs
the spatial experiments of Art et action, a theatre troupe active
in 1920s Paris, that defined five distinct types of modern
performance, types which mirror social institutions and events. The
analysis focuses on Art et Action's designs for theatre buildings
to show how the performance spaces interacted with actors and
spectators according to their respective type, thus commenting on
the characteristic events of urban life. For scholars of theatre,
the study demonstrates the interdependence of spatial design and
drama at a crucial moment in the history of contemporary
performance. For architects, the work offers a model in theatre for
how architecture might act in the daily drama of urban life,
supporting current efforts to make our cities more vital and thus
more sustainable.
