Description

Heinz-Uwe Haus was the first renowned director from the German Democratic Republic to (be allowed to) direct in the USA.

This book presents relevant material written in relation to his productions, specifically of Bertolt Brecht's plays.

This includes Haus's notes for his casts, announcements of the productions in the media, newspaper reviews and academic articles about the productions, conference contributions, and reflections by cast members (both professional actors and university faculty) and designers (set, costume, light, music).

The material on the productions is then discussed in the contexts of approaches to directing, actor training, the academic debate of Brecht in the USA, and historical and biographical dimensions.

A conversation with Haus as the final chapter of the book further contextualises the material brought together here.
