- Summary
- "Barney Simon was the legendary artistic director, writer and co-creator of one of the most important theatres in South Africa and the world: The Market Theatre. He workshopped, wrote and directed unforgettable, pertinent and excellent plays with actors, in his quest to "hold a mirror up high to society". He created works that are a testament to South African life. But how exactly did he work?" "This book was conceived and created just after his untimely death. Scores of great South African and international artists record and share what and how they learned from Barney Simon. Barney was very well known for his famous 'orange exercise'. Through it he created, taught and expressed many profound principles of artistic expression. Through a single orange, he communicated lessons of detail, care, respect and much more."--BOOK JACKET.
