The Orient on the Victorian Stage
ISBN: 9780521818292 / Angielski / Twarda / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Edward Ziter explores the impact of the Middle East and the "Orient," (as it was known), on writing and performance in nineteenth-century British theater and how these portrayals influenced public perception of the region.

Ziter extends his study from the Romantic through to the late-Victorian period, including taking in melodrama, pantomime, ballet, and opera, as well as museum displays and exhibitions.

...et plus grand par les pleurs
ISBN: 9783836489386 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. On est grand par l' amour et plus grand par les pleurs Diese Moral stammt aus Jacques Offenbachs Oper Hoffmanns Erzhlungen, eine Oper, die nie vollendet wurde. Aufgrund dieser Tatsache, aber auch wegen seiner verschachtelten Dramaturgie, bietet das Werk sehr viele Mglichkeiten der Umsetzung und Deutung. Denn die Oper handelt von Erzhlungen ber Erzhlungen. Realitt und Phantasie verschwimmen zu einem scheinbaren Ganzen. Um einen Eindruck von dieser Vielseitigkeit zu gewinnen, werden die Contes in dieser Arbeit von verschiedensten Seiten aus beleuchtet. Sei es im Hinblick auf die...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 1935 in Moskau glaubte Brecht in der Darstellungskunst des chinesischen Schauspielers Mei Lanfang eine Bestatigung seiner Theorie uber das epische Theater gefunden zu haben.

Haben Brechts Impressionen der chinesischen Schauspielkunst wirklich universelle Gultigkeit - besonders fur andere europaische Zuschauer?...

Offer, Accept, Block, Yield
ISBN: 9783639222937 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Improvisation has long been central to drama education for young students and professional actors alike. Since the pioneering work of Keith Johnstone, a form of "additive" Improvisation has evolved around the world which has become arguably more popular than the Commedia dellArte of the 1600s. Eschewing the shorter forms of game-based Improv in order to focus on long form Open Scenes (also known as "Harolds"), the author examines the way that nine key Improv Poetics - the Offer, Endow, Justify, Extend, Advance, Shelve / Reincorporate, Accept, Block and Yield - are used to make long...

Just Give Me 10 Minutes: 4 One Act Plays And 3 Monologues For 1 Evening
ISBN: 9781434894168 / Angielski / Miękka / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It's been said that writing a good one act or 10 minute play is like catching a moving bus. In other words, you want to enter the world of each play at the last possible moment and then exit at the first opportunity. Consequently, the conflict between the characters--that time spent between bus stops--must be clear, yet its resolution unpredictable. Likewise, the audience must quickly learn who these characters are and what they want, yet have no clue how they're going to get it within about 10 minutes. Because these plays and monologues are consciously minimalist in terms of sets and props,...
