The Theatre of Suzuki Tadashi
Suzuki is Japan's best-known director. He has been internationally acclaimed for his postmodern adaptations of classics by Nanboku, Euripides, Shakespeare and Chekhov since the 1970s, including The Trojan Women, King Lear and Three Sisters and, equally, for his powerful actor training system, which combines elements of Noh and Kabuki with Western realism. Inviting artists from around the world to perform at his Toga and Shizuoka International Festivals, Suzuki has fostered productive exchanges with Jean-Louis Barrault, Robert Wilson, Kanze Hisao, Ashikawa Yoko and numerous others. This 2004 book traces Suzuki's rise from Little Theatre director to international festival celebrity, links his unique Surrealist dramaturgy with his intercultural training system, and gives in-depth descriptions of his most acclaimed productions.
The Art of Stillness
For over forty years, Tadashi Suzuki has been a unique and vital force in both Japanese and Western theater, creating and directing many internationally acclaimed productions including his famous production of The Trojan Women, which subsequently toured around the world. An intergral part of his work has been the development and teaching of his rigorous and controversial training system, the Suzuki method, whose principles have also been highly influential in contemporary theater. Paul Allain, an experienced practitioner of the Suzuki method, re-evaluates Suzuki's work, giving a lucid overview of his development towards an international theater aesthetic. He examines Suzuki's collaborators, the importance of architecture and environment in his theater and his impact on performance all over the world. The Art of Stillness is a lively, critical study of one of the most important and uncompromising figures in contemporary world theater.

Insights We Got from Tadashi Suzuki the Shogun of Toga
This book is both an irreverent and insightful forensic dissection of the greatest theatrical genius of the late 20th century, Tadashi Suzuki. Suzuki is unique in that he has developed a true actor training system AND also established an sustained an artistic empire based in a village in the Japanese alps, Togamura. Both have enabled him to create a body of work over a period of over 50 years unmatched by any other theatre practitioner in the world. Both authors establish that in terms of power and elegance, The Man from the Mountain should be compared with Stanley Kubrik in film and Richard Wagner in Opera. Whilst there are other 'official' books, they merely describe the tracks of the Boss's history. The authors have for the first time, articulated the 'hows' and 'whys' of the Tiger of Toga's phenomenal career trajectory in ways that are both disrespectful and highly illuminating. Such a paradoxical attitude reflects the paradigms that enabled Suzuki's remarkable theatrical achievements.
