        Phenomenology and dramaturgies of radio

        by Farokh Soltani

        This study provides an in-depth exploration of the dramaturgical practices of radio drama and their underlying philosophical assumptions. By presenting an analytical model drawn from phenomenology, it challenges the current understanding of the medium, instead focusing on the bodily and aural aspects of radio drama, while offering a critique of the conventions of dramaturgical practice for neglecting these affective sonic aspects. Tracing these conventions through the history of the development of radio drama, it proposes that a more bodily, resonant mode of radio dramaturgy is best placed to meet the demands of the current era of digital production and distribution. The book also examines a number of approaches to creating a more embodied experience for the listener.

        Robert Lepage's original stage productions

        Making theatre global

        by Karen Fricker

        This book explores the development of Robert Lepage's distinctive approach to stage direction in the early (1984-1994) and middle (1995-2008) stages of his career, arguing that globalisation had a defining effect on shaping his aesthetic and his professional trajectory. In addition to globalisation theory, the book draws on cinema studies, queer theory, and theories of affect and reception. Each of six chapters treats a particular aspect of globalisation, using this as a means to explore one or more of Lepage's productions. Productions discussed include The Dragon's Trilogy, Needles and Opium, and The Far Side of the Moon. Making theatre global: Robert Lepage's original stage productions will be of interest to scholars of contemporary theatre, advanced-level undergraduates, and arts lovers keen for new perspectives on one of the most talked-about theatre artists of the early 21st century.

        ACT FULNESS

        Desarrollo personal y técnico del y para el actor/actriz

        by Ana Carril del Valle

        ACT FULNESS · Desarrollo personal y técnico del y para el actor/actriz: el libro, con profusión de consejos y ejercicios prácticos, invita al lector a comenzar un viaje, desde las primeras páginas, elaborando su propios Diario de Actor/Actriz. Y se divide en dos bloques complementarios.  El primero, el entrenamiento, arranca con el autoconocimiento, algo innegociable para comenzar a trabajar, y desgrana después las destrezas y herramientas necesarias como la Conciencia Corporal y Espacial, la Concentración y Observación, la Atención Distributiva, la Imaginación y la Creatividad, la Memoria, la Escucha Activa y el Impulso.  En la segunda parte, se genera un viaje de la Emoción a través del Texto, separando estos dos elementos para desarrollarlos de forma exhaustiva.

        Un taller de drama

        by Fernando Bercebal Guerrero

        "Un Taller de Drama" es un libro esperado doblemente. Es la aplicación práctica del ya conocido libro del mismo autor, "Drama. Un espacio intermedio entre juego y teatro", y viene a cubrir una necesidad acuciante en el mundo de la enseñanza y animación de la expresión. Aunque pueda parecer un recetario de ejercicios, "Un Taller de Drama" va mucho más allá, aportando una programación de más de veinte sesiones estructuradas para desarrollar un taller con múltiples posibilidades finales. Una introducción sin desperdicio nos explica cómo y para qué usar este libro. Como complemento de gran valor y, por primera vez en el campo de la expresión y el teatro, el libro se acompaña de un CD-Rom interactivo con el que el usuario podrá reprogramar las sesiones en función del grupo con el que esté trabajando, su edad, y los objetivos a conseguir, así como adecuar los ejercicios a sus necesidades. En el libro se dedica un capítulo al aprovechamiento de esta herramienta novedosa en un ámbito habitualmente artesanal. Fernando Bercebal, Profesor de Drama y Técnico Superior de Expresión, pone sobre el papel y en los bites de memoria, gran parte de su experiencia con multitud de colectivos y en situaciones diversas, lo que hace de esta propuesta algo más cercano a la realidad que todo enseñante se enfrenta día a día. Chris Baldwin, uno de los referentes del autor, profesor, director y autor teatral, prologa este texto que responde a muchos de los interrogantes que ambos han encontrado en sus múltiples proyectos comunes. Con este libro tan especial, apareció también un personaje que va apareciendo a lo largo del libro 'Dram' y que es como un amigo. ¿Quien es Dram? Dram es el personaje que representa lo lúdico y a la vez lo sereno y profundo que es el Drama. Aparece dando consejos, mostrando algunos ejercicios o indicando aspectos interesantes como los accesorios. Realmente "Un taller de drama" que se ha convertido en el manual pedagógico teatral más utilizado en castellano, vino a cubrir una necesidad en la enseñanza y animación de la expresión y sigue cubriendo este espacio, destacado además por su carácter eminentemente práctico y con un CD rom interactivo para programar sesiones. "Un taller de drama, trata de cómo progresamos, reflexionamos y entonces actuamos nuevamente como resultado de nuestras experiencias. Y esto es por lo que, si realmente tienes interés en trabajar con drama, valorarás este libro tanto como yo." Chris Baldwin
