Описание:

E. Reid Gilbert has been engaged in theatre as a playwriter, performer, mime, choreographer, director of a major center for mime in Spring Green, WI, a student of Kabuki and Indian Kathakali Dance, as well as having written his infamous 100 Limericks for 100 Days of Trump, and multiple books in his octogenarian years. He continues his writing at 88 years of age, with his next book documenting his approach to physical acting and movement for the stage. This collection of nine plays and one screenplay capture his creative prowess in all of its tragi-comic temperament. Here, are stories of race and the south where he grew up as a boy, and the skill of an actor/playwright who has known both sides of theatre, from performing to directing and playwriting -- a lovely summary of his work to date for stage and screen.

Описание:

Every culture has its own trickster character. The Southern Appalachian Mountain trickster is Jack, whom readers may know from traditional stories like "Jack in the Giant's Newground" and "Jack and the Bean Tree."
The stories in Trickster Jack, which focus on the shenanigans of Jack and his older brothers, are actually tall tales emerging from Reid Gilbert's tricky imagination. Set in the Southern Appalachians around the end of the nineteenth century, these tales describe actual activities of the time, such as making a wooden wagon with white oak rounds for wheels, fetching water from wells with windlasses, and using outdoor outhouses.

Trickster Jack introduces those readers from outside the Appalachians to some of the ways and manners of that region, while reacquainting Appalachians themselves with their own heritage. Regardless of where you hail, there is plenty in this whimsical collection to delight and entertain you.
