The acclaimed collaborations of playwright/director/designer Richard Foreman and composer Stanley Silverman have challenged and entertained adventurous theatregoers internationally for twenty years. This selection of texts make these original and inimitable works of music-theatre accessible to a wide audience for the first time.
Includes: Hotel for Criminals (The American Imagination) an exploration of the dark, sex-filled vision of France created by silent film serials; Africanus Instructus, a surrealistic vaudeville journey through the dark continent of our subconscious; and Love and Science, a magical romance with mystical implications.
Also included are the script of Yiddisher Teddy Bears, a musical comedy set in New York's Lower East Side at the turn of the century, and Richard Foreman's own introduction to his singular world of music theatre.
'Intellectual vaudeville… ravishing entertainment… Silverman and Foreman are true innovators; and they hold the future of music-theatre firmly in their talented and mischievous hands'
