Couverture souple. Condition: Neuf. « Depuis près de quinze ans, les oeuvres d'Ex Machina et de son directeur artistique, Robert Lepage, fascinent les spectateurs du monde entier. De Québec à Tokyo, le public est émerveillé par cette approche multidisciplinaire de la scène où dialoguent arts, sciences et technologies. Chantiers d'écriture scénique propose une incursion dans l'univers du théâtre et des opéras d'Ex Machina. Des premières explorations jusqu'à l'écriture finale des spectacles, on y découvre le processus de création qui donne cette signature unique au travail de la compagnie.« Au fil des ans, on a écrit beaucoup de choses sur la compagnie. Un des objectifs de ce livre est de nous réapproprier la théorie derrière notre travail pour la rendre accessible aux lecteurs. » ROBERT LEPAGE ».
