| Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Vol.1: The first three texts in the collected works span the world's literature. The epic of Gilgamesh -- created in the Sumerian cradle of civilization -- is the earliest story we know, yet contains the deepest question man can ask: `How can I transcend death?' The story of Marouf the Cobbler is an oriental tale taken from the works of Sir Richard Burton, the great Victorian explorer, and is dedicated to the genius of that world-renowned story-teller, Shehrazade. Goethe's `Faust' needs no introduction. The translation of Part One in this collection is pungent and unusual. Vol.2: In contrast with the first volume, the second is devoted to new mythologies and social forces. The three plays explore three American archetypal pursuits of happiness: the glory of the lone individual, the glamour of Hollywood and the magic lure of Space. The Caravan of Dreams Touring Theater -- also known as the `Theater of All Possibilities' -- was founded in 1967 by Director, Kathelin Hoffman, and dramaturge, Johnny Dolphin. Exercising the ensemble spirit of the Commedia Dell'arte and the Globe theater, it is a theater of ideas and energies that aims to stretch the boundaries of theatrical performance. It explores human intentions rather than reactions towards the making of history; in this way continuing the reach of Shakespeare, Goethe and Brecht. Johnny Dolphin (see above) has made his own versions of some of the greatest stories of the world, as well as creating new myths and images of our own age, for use by the Theater of All Possibilties in their performances.
