The story
of Joe Chaikin’s professional life is also the story of experimental theater
in America. In this intimate program, footage of Chaikin in action as well
as interviews with playwrights Edward Albee, Sam Shepard, Jean-Claude van
Itallie, and John Belluso; writer Susan Sontag; and many others reveal
Chaiken’s devotion to the stage—a love that even severe aphasia, the result
of a stroke, could not diminish. A variety of clips spanning Chaikin’s
acting/directing career—from his early days, with the Open Theatre and the
Living Theatre, to later, post-stroke work, most notably with actors with
disabilities—are featured. (43 minutes)
