Theatre of Real People Zusammenfassung

Theatre of Real People: Diverse Encounters at Berlins Hebbel am Ufer and Beyond Ulrike Garde (Macquarie University, Australia)

Theatre of Real People offers fresh perspectives on the current fascination with putting people on stage who present aspects of their own lives and who are not usually trained actors. After providing a history of this mode of performance, and theoretical frameworks for its analysis, the book focuses on work developed by seminal practitioners at Berlins Hebbel am Ufer (HAU) production house. It invites the reader to explore the HAUs innovative approach to Theatre of Real People, authenticity and cultural diversity during the period of Matthias Lilienthals leadership (200312). Garde and Mumford also elucidate how Theatre of Real People can create and destabilise a sense of the authentic, and suggest how Authenticity-Effects can present new ways of perceiving diverse and unfamiliar people. Through a detailed analysis of key HAU productions such as Lilienthals brainchild X-Apartments, Mobile Academys Blackmarket, and Rimini Protokolls 100% City, the book explores both the artistic agenda of an important European theatre institution, and a crucial aspect of contemporary theatres social engagement.

Theatre of Real People Bewertungen

With this book, Garde and Mumford notably advance the study of Theatre of the Real and of the performer in documentary theatre The notion of a skeptical approach to Authenticity-Effects and the impact that this can have on willing audiences is a thrilling step forward in the field and one that can have a wide impact among both scholars and theatre practitioners. * Theatre Survey *
A fascinating account of recent modes of socially engaged performance that places contemporary people drawn from the everyday, rather than trained actors, at the center of the theatrical experience ... the analyses in Chapters 5-8 of Theatre of Real People are lively and incisive. * Limbus *
