This German playwright and director was, according to the author and to a significant number of theatre practitioners and critics, one of the most important theatrical innovators of the twentieth century, and perhaps of all time. His work strove to de-emphasize emotion and sentiment in favor of clear, specific, rationally presented (and commented upon) experience.
