Le Théâtre du Soleil traces the company's history from a group of young, barely trained actors, directors and designers struggling to match their political commitment to a creative strategy, to their grappling with the concerns of migration, separation and exile in the early decades of the 21st century. Judith G. Miller's translation of this stunningly illustrated history of the artistic, theoretical and socio-political commitments driving the Théâtre du Soleil's creations under the direction of Ariane Mnouchkine offers the mostcurrent and comprehensive portrait of the Soleil to date. - Deborah Gaensbauer, Studies in 20th and 21st Century Literature
