ABSTRACT
It would be unreasonable to assume that the exercises suggested in the pages to follow are a direct reproduction of what Wilson does in workshops and rehearsals.Wilson does not have a training system for actors, directors and stage and light designers, whose various activities he carries out himself with great skill. We have had a glimpse of the incredible range of people with whom he has worked across the globe in different cultural contexts, group affiliations and languages. All have nurtured him in some way, as he has them, in the inspiring and creative interchange that makes the theatre, in all its multiple forms and hybridising processes, a collaborative endeavour virtually like no other. Such an extraordinary, polyphonic experience of the world of the theatre has given Wilson an intimate knowledge of its workings, which this section of my book cannot begin to convey fully.
