REVIEWS
"Clive Barker's book is more than just a guidebook of improvisational games for actors - it is, rather a comprehensive exploration of acting techniques" ~ New York Theatre Review
"Theatre Games is a massive contribution to the art of theatre ... A bulging portfolio of credo, craft, advice and instruction ... It is dazzlingly astute and a thrilling read - quite unlike a text-book, rather a long, fascinating chat into the small hours" ~ The Stage
