Alexis Granovsky and the Jewish State Theatre of Moscow
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 December 2021
Extract
This is great art. Great art. External impressions and soul disturbances. Word-sound, blood-sound, color-sound, image sound. There are calls, voices, cries, choirs. It is jest and terror…and human abstraction to the last; it is indeed pantomime with the element of infinity. Something miraculous. Great art…Sum total: Here is an excellent example of all the possibilities in theatrical art. Three, four, five fields intermingled: word, song, dance, picture and behavior. Stepped up to the end. Not a dead point the whole evening. Not for a second do they grow slack. Word-play, song-play; cornmedia dell'arte—between them, temple chants, puppet show, variety acts, almost a circus—and humanity. Amazing.
