Paperback. Condizione: New. How do we define movement in performance? Who or what is being moved and how? And which movements are felt, observed, or studied, in theatre? Part of the Theory for Theatre Studies series which introduces core theoretical concepts that underpin the discipline, Movement provides the first overview of relevant critical theory for students and researchers in theatre and performance studies. Exploring areas such as vitality, plasticity, gesture, effort and rhythm, it opens up the study of theatrical production, live art, and intercultural performance to socio-political conceptions of movement as both practice and concept. It covers movement training systems and considers how they have been utilized in key works of the 20th and 21st centuries. The final section traces the convergence of movement in theatre with other media and digital technologies. A wide range of in-depth case studies helps to equip readers to explore new methodologies and approaches to movement as a performance concept. These include analysis of Satoshi Miyagi's production of Sophocles' Antigone (2017), Thomas Ostermeier's production of Ibsen's Hedda Gabler (2008), the Berliner Ensemble's Mother Courage (1949), The Constant Prince (1965) performed by Ryzsard Cieslak, and the National Theatre's production of War Horse (2007). The final section considers a suite of concepts that shape postdramatic and intermedial theatre from China, Germany-Bangladesh, Australia, the United States, and United Kingdom. The volume is supported by further online resources including video material, questions, and exercises.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. How does the manufacture, design, and commodification of costume inform choreography and determine what dancers have worn on stage? How do certain types of costume influence the experience of dance and choreography for the performers, or for the audience? What political or social affects contribute to the impression that dance costumes communicate in movement aesthetics? By answering such questions, Fabrications provides new insights into the connections between twentieth-century American concert dance history, and both visual and fashion culture, while also presenting methods for appreciating how the artefacts of costume in archival collections activate important corporeal and cultural memories. In the study of material culture, Rachel Fensham draws upon the dialectical image of Walter Benjamin, the fashion system of Roland Barthes, and writings on new materialism as perspectives for interpreting costumes in dance. Focusing on costume as multiplicity, she establishes the syntax of the textile, the silhouette, and the modes of construction as a method for the identification and analysis of typical costumes. Each chapter undertakes a quasi-chronological survey of choreographic works created by leading dancers, choreographers, and designers, including Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn, Martha Graham, Katherine Dunham, Merce Cunningham, Trisha Brown, and Josephine Baker. Illustrated with almost two-hundred full-color photographs of costumes from dance archives and stills from leading dance works in the United States and Europe, Fabrications presents a new and innovative way to think about dance history as material culture, understood through costumes that have stories that extend beyond the stage.…
