Reviews
“Compared to other texts in the field of theatre, Murphy’s Enacting Lecoq is unique both in its Enactivist approach and the way in which it focuses on the foundational versus executional abilities of the actor-creator. … it could be a hugely important text for graduate students in Theatre Education, Movement Pedagogy, Applied Theatre, as well as acting teachers, whose students will deeply benefit from an incorporation of Murphy’s insights into their pedagogy.” (Jordan Rosin,Theatre Topics, Vol. 31 (1), March, 2021)
“Murphy’s analysis of Lecoq and his work is outstanding in its breadth and depth. This work will be a central source for understanding the work of Lecoq, both for those versed in the field and those encountering his approach to acting for the first time. It sets the standard for work on Lecoq.” (Professor John Lutterbie, Stony Brook University, USA)Authors and Affiliations
