Le Theatre Et Son Double
Antonin Artaud's seminal work, *The Theater and Its Double*, revolutionizes dramatic theory by advocating for a radical, visceral, and ritualistic theatrical experience. This foundational text introduces the concept of the 'Theater of Cruelty,' pushing for an avant-garde approach that strips away artifice, aiming to confront the audience with raw, transformative truths and fundamentally reshape our understanding of performance art theory.
