What a wild piece of theatre!!! I did not know much about Artaud before reading this play but I felt that I was able to follow anyways. A horrifying look at early days of therapy and the brutality found in asylums. I was fascinated by what this play had to say about the art of theatre and how it impaced the life of Artaud. Loved the use of Chekhov in this play. I really could not guess where this play was going. Loved how large this cast can be. Would work great for colleges.
