Jerzy Grotowski (August 1933 - 14 January 1999)
Jacques Lecoq (December 15, 1921 – January 19, 1999)
I learned recently that these two iconoclasts of the modern theater died within five days of one another.
I began my serious pursuit of theater in the realm of Grotowski.
The artistic directors of Imago Theatre studied with Lecoq.
In January of 1999, I felt an overwhelming compulsion to take up acting again.
In my first play with Imago, I was holding a mask, not dissimilar to the one Lecoq is holding.
