How Theatre Means
Author: Ric Knowles
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 113744228X
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
In this wide-ranging study, Ric Knowles demonstrates how the examination and practice of theatre is enhanced by an expanded semiotic approach. Moving from the history and theory of performance analysis to its practical application and paying particular attention to cross-cultural applications, he examines not what a particular piece of theatre means, but how meaning is produced in the process of creating, viewing and analysing theatre. How Theatre Means presents contemporary case studies and explores intersections between a wide range of theories and methods. Clear and accessible, this book brings a key analytical methodology to life for students, practitioners and scholars.

Theatre and Interculturalism
Author: Ric Knowles
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1137014245
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
How are hybrid and diasporic identities performed in increasingly diverse societies? How can we begin to think differently about theatrical flow across cultures? Interculturalism is an increasingly urgent topic in the 21st century. As human traffic between nations increases, it becomes imperative to critically re-examine the way cultural exchange is performed. Theatre & Interculturalism surveys established approaches and asks what it would mean to reconsider intercultural performance, not from the points of view of the colonizing cultures, but 'from below'- from the viewpoints of the historically colonized and marginalized.

The Global and Local Appeal of Kneehigh Theatre Company
Author: Catherine Trenchfield
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527586618
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
This book explores Kneehigh Theatre Company’s notions of “Brand Kneehigh”, discussing how their theatrical style enjoyed local and global appeal, in relation to theories of globalisation, localisation and cultural exchange. It defines Kneehigh’s theatrical brand, indicating Cornish cultural identity as a core component in conjunction with international influences. By looking at the history of this company, the book’s analysis of key productions reflects on qualities attributed to “Brand Kneehigh” and considers the ‘local’ and ‘global’ nature of their work. The selection and review of productions examined here reveals the changes and reinventions Kneehigh have undergone to incorporate shifting interests and socioeconomic engagements. This book explores Kneehigh’s ambitions to establish themselves as a company delivering material that is ‘popular’ in appeal, meeting the needs of a Cornish (local) community and an international (global) audience. However, tensions working between local and global interests are also exposed, with an investigation into Kneehigh’s own cited solution: their self-created performance space, the Asylum.

Reading Theatre III
Author: Anne Ubersfeld
Publisher: Legas Publishing
ISBN: 9781894508360
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
To deepen our understanding of reading theatre, it is necessary to closely examine the manifestation of speech. This book examines the role of dialogue and monologue in theatrical texts from the perspective of some of the most recent theories in enunciation and pragmatics within the context of exchange. It also focuses on interrelationships at the cognitive persuasive levels with characters that ground their subjectivity in dialogical interaction as they appropriate all the resources of language. She lives in Paris, France.
