Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Reimagining theatre as a living, breathing collaboration between professional artists and the communities they serve. Jonathan Petherbridge reflects on three decades as Artistic Director of London Bubble, where he brought together volunteer and professional artists to create a form he calls Vernacular Theatre. Emerging from a collaborative methodology known as the Foraging Process, Vernacular Theatre transforms communal stories into striking performances infused with an aesthetic of care. Interspersed with case studies from London and Hiroshima, Vernacular Theatre examines how theater can honor local history, address contemporary issues, and create spaces for collective expression. By drawing connections to the ancient Greek chorus, Petherbridge proposes a new genre of socially engaged performance; one that invites people of all ages to gather, create, and share. This work is a blueprint for theatre-makers and readers invested in participatory arts and community storytelling. A practical description of six intergenerational projects developed during a ten-year period. Over the course of the book the author develops his argument for a form of civic drama that is accessible to all but rigorous in process. Based on work made with citizens of London and Hiroshima. 13 col. illus. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Between 1989 and 2020, Jonathan Petherbridge worked as the artistic director of a community-based theatre company - London Bubble. This longer than average tenure allowed him time to forge a close working relationship with the community and develop new ways to involve people of all ages in theatre-making. Out of a slew of projects emerged a particular methodology to make work that was researched, curated and performed by citizens between the ages of 8 and 80. The process that emerged was called Foraging - a methodology carefully divided into five phases, which attempts to bring the best out of both voluntary and specialist artists - making time and space for them to create theatre that has a striking beauty and an ingrained aesthetic of care. Vernacular Theatre describes the result - the aesthetic. The case studies - based on work with citizens of London and Hiroshima - examine how this theatre has valued key moments of communal history, contemporary issues and everyday institutions. The book suggests reasons and techniques for others to make similar work. Concluding with a reflection on the pre-classical chorus of Greek theatre where original work was produced to celebrate events with and for the community, this book proposes a new genre - a social and intergenerational art form that invites people to gather and share their life experience, concerns and creativity.
