Jacques Lecoq born (December 15, 1921 – January 19, 1999) in Paris, was a French actor, mime and acting instructor. He is most famous for his methods on physical theatre, movement and mime that he taught at the school he founded in Paris, L’École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq from 1956 until his death in 1999.

In The Moving Body for the first time Lecoq shares his unique philosophy
of performance, improvisation, masks, movement, and gesture. Neutral mask, character masks and counter-masks, bouffons, acrobatics, commedia, clowns: all the famous Lecoq techniques are include here.
The Moving Body is the written legacy of a great theatrical imagination.
