Review: "In The Mask Handbook: A practical guide, Europe's leading mask director and co-founder of the Trestle Theatre Company sets out to demystify the process of using masks. In an age of bland realism on television and technological excess in film, masks have the ability to truly play the fundamental game of theatre - the suspension of disbelief. They ask the audience to participate in the theatrical process in the way children do, with a desire to believe in the simple transformation of actor into character, and to connect their imaginations to those of the actors."--Jacket.
