...left-wing government in Norway," Britain's New Statesman magazine suggested last week. "This government is sharply told that the internal reforms which it plans are not its private affair, but also concern its allies.

He has lowered the visibility of the actor, by making him much more of a group figure, an inter-actor-the difference, as it were, between Greek sculpture and Egyptian bas-relief. Similarly, the playwright in Brook's hands has been reduced to a sort of coauthor. Brook supplies, or imposes, a coeval text of ritualistic sounds and gestures that often competes with the playwright's lines. At its worst, this method generates...
