Analysing a forgotten, unpublished performance script of Friedrich Schiller's adaptation of Goethe's play Egmont, David John examines the collaboration between the two playwrights as a means of addressing fundamental questions on the roles of text and performance. He shows that performance, not text, constitutes the essence of dramatic and theatrical experience.
