Étienne Decroux
Étienne Decroux (July 19, 1898 in Paris, France - March 12, 1991 in Billancourt, Somme, Picardie) studied at Jacques Copeau's Ecole de Vieux-Colombier, where he saw the beginnings of what was to become his life's obsession--Corporeal Mime. During his long career as a film and theatre actor, he created many pieces, taking the human body as the main means of expression.
