Hiding Behind the Mask: Jesters, Jokers and Clowns
Rosemary George (New York, USA) | with C ARTS
An intriguing, soul-searching masterclass into the personas of jesters, jokers, and clowns, through the lens of the theatrical mask. From Greek trickster gods to Japanese Noh Theatre, commedia dell'arte and opera to slapstick and cartoons, join Professor Rosemary George on a rollercoaster through the joys and sorrows, comedies and tragedies of life, which probes hidden identities in human behaviour.
'The professor's range and extent of research is clearly apparent'
(EdinburghGuide.com).
'This is a masterclass in how we become what we
are not, from the 'tears of a clown' to the masks of traditional
Japanese Noh' (LouReviews.blog).
'Brilliantly and eloquently
written... Thoughtful... Extraordinarily well-researched' (Audience
review).
'Quite unique... Informative and fun' (Audience review).
'Truly thoughtful, educational' (Audience review).
