Prometheus & The Archaeology of Sleep

Más información sobre el libro

Set against the backdrop of summer 1977, the narrative follows The Living Theatre as they transition from touring Europe to creating a new work in Rome. Julian Beck's fascination with the Prometheus myth drives the development of the play, intertwining characters and themes from the Russian Revolution to address contemporary political issues. The production features a unique structure with three acts, culminating in a vigil outside a prison, and after its 1978 debut, it embarks on a year-long tour across various countries and cities.
