This compelling anthology, edited by E. T. Kirby, explores the avant-garde concept of "Total Theatre," where music, movement, and lighting intersect to create a unified sensory experience. Kirby was a noted scholar of performance theory, and this work remains a significant reference for the evolution of futurism, dadaism, and surrealism in the performing arts. This particular copy features a distinctive mid-century cover design and includes a notable vintage provenance with a 1973 owner’s signature on the front flyleaf. The book is in good vintage condition with some expected age-related wear, including minor chipping and scuffing to the edges of the dust jacket and light toning to the pages, though the binding remains firm and the interior text is clean.
