Stage and screen director Peter Brook and performers from the Centre for International Theatre discuss their approach to drama. Excerpts from the play “L’Os”, “Ubu Roi”, “The Ik” and “The Conference of the Birds” which were performed in a disused quarry during the 1980 Adelaide Festival of Arts, illustrate their innovative approach to theatre.
