zur Neuauflage

Unique in its examination of the techniques used in the training of performers, the book suggests how some of these techniques might be applied to Western training in drama and dance.

Leon Rubin and I Nyoman Sedana, both international theatre professionals as well as scholars, collaborate to give an understanding of performance culture in Bali from inside and out.

The book describes four specific forms of contemporary performance that are unique to Bali:

Wayang shadow-puppet theatre
Sanghyang ritual trance performance
Gambuh classical dance-drama
the virtuoso art of Topeng masked theatre.

These culturally unique and beautiful theatrical events are contextualised within religious, intellectual and social backgrounds to give unparalleled insight into the mind and world of the Balinese performer.

Professor Leon Rubin is Director of East 15 Acting School, University of Essex. Dr I Nyoman Sedana is a Professor at the Indonesian Arts Institute (ISI) in Bali, Indonesia.
