Abstract
The Tailor of Inverness is concerned with the life and adventures of Mateusz Zajac, tailor, narrated and performed by his son Matthew, Dogstar Theatre Artistic Director. This article examines how the concept of rhizomic pattern, minutely dealt with by the philosophers Deleuze and Guattari, underlies Matthew Zajac’s auto/biographical dramatic work which is shown to be be more than a simple quest for personal roots.
An outline of the production's history is included at the end of this article.
