Peter Brook: The Tightrope

Peter Brook is one of the world’s most respected and revolutionary directors of contemporary theatre. To help his actors achieve extraordinary performances, he has a special exercise called The Tightrope, which evolved over decades of experimentation and practice into a process of transformation that makes theatre real and new for actor and audience alike. In this quietly eloquent and unique film, director Simon Brook – Peter’s son – reveals how The Tightrope works its dramatic alchemy. Film with English subtitles.
