Artemisia Vulgaris<p>I’ve just learned that Keith Johnstone has died. No actor or director I know doesn’t owe him a debt of gratitude. His legacy is immeasurable, his two great books teach you more each time you read them. May Bacchus receive him with open arms. <br /><a href="https://social.coop/tags/KeithJohnstone" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>KeithJohnstone</span></a></p>
