description: "There has always been a short distance between my work in the theater and my work in the film studio," Ingmar Bergman has often reminded his public. Today, after more than four decades in the living theater and with over seventy major stage productions to his credit, Bergman ranks among the most exciting and innovative stage directors in Europe. Yet the key aspect of his career has tended to be unjustly overshadowed, at least outside Europe, by his renown as one of the century's greatest film makers. In this book the authors redress the critical balance by providing, for the first time in English, a detailed and comprehensive study of Bergman's most important stage productions.
