Summary
Annotation Theatre in Passingexplores spaces of performance in contemporary Moscow. Inspired by French philosopher Michel de Certeaus model of a "second, poetic geography" in which the walkerthe everyday practitionerinvents the space observed by the voyeur, this book takes the reader on a tour of spaces of performance in contemporary Moscow. Through text and photography, the citys "theatrical geography" is uncovered, from the Bolshoi Theater in Theater Square to hidden gems like the recently restored Kuskovo estate. With additional sections on street theater and other public gatherings,Theatre in Passingis a must-read book for anyone curious about the theatrical architecture and geography of Russias capital.
