Judith Malina Boeken
Judith Malina was een drijvende kracht achter The Living Theatre, een avant-gardistisch ensemble dat bekend stond om zijn experimentele en compromisloze benadering van performance. Samen met Julian Beck co-richtte ze een theaterinstelling op die voortdurend de grenzen verlegde en maatschappelijke conventies uitdaagde. Haar werk onderzocht het potentieel van radicale artistieke expressie om tot nadenken aan te zetten en verandering te inspireren. Malina's nalatenschap wordt gekenmerkt door haar onwrikbare toewijding aan een politiek geladen en transformerende theatrale visie.
