Summary/Abstract: Joanna Walaszek writes about the book The Wooster Group Work Book by Andrew Quick, published by the Ha!art Corporation as part of their Theater Line. Walaszek outlines the reception of The Wooster Group’s work in Poland. She describes Andrew Quick’s method, which, mainly based on the archive, builds a narrative around the group’s selected plays without putting its work in a theoretical framework. She calls attention to the book’s interview technique, and is particularly impressed by Quick’s essay “Work Book,” which deals with the group’s work under Elizabeth LeCompte. Walaszek also notes the insufficient translations of Quick available in Polish.
