Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Fire Babies: Workshop Theatre Two This Workshop Theatre series was especially commissioned as a Resource for Theatre-in-Education Projects, with each play offering expressive opportunities for developing skills without the strictures of set rules or standard practices. The Fire Babies are eye-witnesses who, uninvited, appear upon an empty stage in order to give testimony of their not-knowing what once they did, or only pretended to have done, or only imagined they were once accused of having done. They present themselves in the form of a contemporary burlesque: a two-act series of sixty-two 'turns' (as for a cabaret-revue or variety-show), each 'turn' focusing on themes of psychology and violence in a world obsessed with war - which is both an ancient and a modern 'world' and which also serves as a single stage-of-experience whose mysteries are as they ever were: unfathomable and absurd. Their absurdity is that of an infantile denial of all responsibility, plus a comprehensive refusal to acknowledge all consequences of their actions and also the inevitable outcomes: this situation is for the Fire Babies a 'default-condition' - that of perpetually re-rehearsing and re-playing their playground games, reiterating their ancient mythology, and ritualizing all their uncanny behaviours: these include a cheerful assortment of childish ring-dances and an eternity of let's-pretend and make-believe. Forever, they are to remain Infants in Infancy, although self-evidently they are Adults in Adultery. Such is their absurd predicament: a closed impasse offering no resolution, only a perpetual recurrence of itself. L.J. Carr, General Editor This item is printed on demand.
