Are there “real” tears in the theatre, as Godard wondered if there could be a “real” kiss in a movie? Milo Rau’s Vers un réalisme global is based on this age-old, unresolvable tension between art and reality.

This book brings together lectures and interviews from 2013, the Manifesto of Ghent, an essay by Johannes Birgfeld entitled ‘Milo Rau’s Theatre of Revolution’ and a chapter on what NTGent will become after the pandemic. It offers a wide-ranging immersion in his artistic work and his thoughts on theatre.

This book, published by Verbrecher Verlag, contains 99 texts on art and society. The editors, Rolf Bossart and Kaatje De Geest, present it as a kind of log book by Milo Rau – an artist who questions his own position and privileges time and time again.
