The product of over eighteen years of embodied research by the author, The Dancing Word presents a systemic and phenomenological description of a contemporary intercultural theatre practice. This volume offers a blueprint for both training and collaborative performance creation that integrates the best of western laboratory theatre with the practice and ontological underpinnings of Chinese martial (Wushu) and healing/self care (Qigong) arts. This is a book for theatre practitioners, students, scholars, and those interested in exploring transcultural methodologies.
Daniel Mroz is a theatre director and acting teacher specializing in the physical and vocal training of performers. He leads Les Ateliers du corps, a theatre training and performance studio in Ottawa, Canada. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Theatre at the University of Ottawa.
