VOICES FROM WITHIN: GROTOWSKI'S POLISH COLLABORATORS brings
together, for the first time in English, the distinctive voices of
renowned director Jerzy Grotowski's Polish colleagues, providing a
rare insight into different areas of their research and work.
Through conversations, recollections, journal entries, images,
working notes, and other testimonies, the collection opens up a
range of perspectives on this changing practice - both within and
beyond the theatre - from the actors, artists, designers,
producers, administrators, and investigators who co-created it. The
book spans the full period of Grotowski's career, from the 'theatre
of productions' phase, through paratheatre and Theatre of Sources,
to the final phase of 'Art as vehicle' following his emigration
from Poland. What emerges from these narratives is a genuinely
collaborative endeavour that, as Grotowski himself commented - in a
note distributed with the Laboratory Theatre's touring productions
- is often mistakenly associated with 'his name and his name
alone'. Voices from Within makes an important contribution to
international understanding of this work, by offering a multi-vocal
'insiders' account' of the collective and individual searches,
uncertainties, discoveries, and experiences that accompanied many
of Grotowski's long-time creative partnerships.
