Black Earth

Towards a New Drama

Beschreibung

Mystery drama is a contemporary manifestation of a movement first expressed in early Greek drama, After working with Rudolf Steiner's mystery dramas for some years, Christopher Marcus and his performance group felt the need to stage a contemporary work. The result is Black Earth, a bold and powerful drama of soul and spirit, based around themes of technology, art, destiny, and metamorphosis. First presented in 1999 by Circle-X Arts -- an international group of artists, directors, writers, and producers -- and performed around Europe to much acclaim, Black Earth is published here for the first time.
