Out of the Body Travel

Richard Foreman is an American theatre director and playwright known for a radical deconstruction of narrative and scenic space that emerged from postwar experimental performance. His work employs dense layering of sound, light, and movement to fragment conventional storytelling, prioritizing sensory overload and the materiality of theatrical production itself. Foreman founded the Ontological-Hysteric Theater in New York in 1968, establishing a laboratory for non-linear visual composition that challenges the coherence of character and plot.
