Andras Visky's Barrack dramaturgy: memories of the body

Widely considered one of the most innovative voices in Hungarian theater, András Visky has enjoyed growing audiences and increased critical acclaim over the last 15 years.

Nonetheless, his plays have yet to reach an English-language audience.

This volume, edited by Jozefina Komporaly, begins to correct this by bringing together a translated collection of Visky's work.

The book includes the first English-language anthology of Visky's best known plays, as well as critical analysis and an exploration of Visky's 'Barrack Dramaturgy,' a dramaturgical theory in which he considers the theatre as a space for exploring feelings of cultural and personal captivity.
