The decades between 1850 and 1950 are characterized by the emergence of new technologies and communication media, as well as the development of infrastructure for transnational travel and trade. Theatre benefited from and contributed to this transnational interconnectedness in all its artistic and business dimensions. Not only were new theatres built in almost every corner of the world, but genres, plays and performers travelled globally and led to the emergence of new theatrical public spheres and forms of spectatorship. This special issue of the Journal of Global Theatre History proposes that we could usefully borrow Arjun Appadurai’s well-known notion of -scapes (mediascapes, econoscapes, ideoscapes, etc.) that he uses for describing the dimensions of global flows in contemporary globalization. By adding another scape, namely ‘theatrescapes’, we can describe the dynamics and flows of theatrical expansion in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Indubitably, theatre and its infrastructures interacted intensely and strategically with the new global media of the time: the (illustrated) press, advertisements, photography, cinema, radio. The dislocation of people engendered by migration created new theatre publics that might be termed ‘translocal’ audiences: geographically separated from their homes, immigrants longed for cultural entertainment familiar to them; European spectators in India or China, for instance, remained mentally or imaginatively aligned with their home countries, whereas local publics needed to accustom themselves to the new medium of theatre. At the same time, the increasing interconnectedness and knowledge about the world evoked a major interest in foreign peoples and their forms of cultural entertainment. This second number of GTHJ grew out of a conference of the same title that took place in 2014 funded by the Fritz Thyssen Foundation and collects a selection of papers discussed there. The contributors interrogate various facets of the intersections of global media and translocal publics as a consequence of migration, and discuss their impact on theatre and vice versa between 1850 and 1950. The following questions form the shared agenda of the papers: 1) Interaction between theatre and global media: How did performers, entrepreneurs, and directors employ global media, and by what means did media and modern marketing facilitate the global dissemination of theatrical forms and formats? 2) Translocal publics: What can we learn about the emergence of theatrical public spheres in situations of cross-cultural contact? 3) The press and globalized theatrical reading publics: How did the (international) press and theatre mutually condition one another and impact on their respective audiences? Editorial III 4) Networked stages: What can we say about the transregional and even transnational interconnections and collaborations of theatre entrepreneurs, producers and agents? 5) New urban centres as theatrical contact zones: What role did urban life play in the context of theatrescapes? 6) Theatre-building as a (inter) cultural act: What role did theatre architecture play in the framework of theatre and the early phase of (cultural) globalization? In her paper "Sarah Bernhardt in Brazil (1886-1893)", Monize Oliveira Moura follows the routes and itineraries of the popular French actress in the late nineteenth century. Bernhardt’s theatrical trade routes led from Europe to the Americas and back and fostered the intensification between French and Brazilian theatre culture in particular. Moura highlights Bernhardt’s impact on local audiences and their theatrical taste in Brazil and thus demonstrates how theatre could become global by touring stars. Catherine Vance Yeh links Peking Opera, Kabuki and the famous tour of the Denishawn company in her essay "Experimenting with Dance Drama: Peking Opera Modernity, Kabuki Theater Reform and the Denishawn’s Tour of the Far East". Focusing on the first two decades of the twentieth century, she sheds light on the transformation of Peking opera by focusing on the three main areas of contact, namely Paris, Japan and the U.S. By doing so, on a macro level Yeh advocates a reconsideration of artistic modernity understood as a global rather than as a mere European phenomenon. The circus jockey Rosita de la Plata, born in Buenos Aires, is the protagonist of Johanna Dupré’s paper "‘Die erste Jockey-Reiterin der Welt, aus Süd-Amerika’: Rosita de la Plata, Global Imaginaries and the Media". Based on hitherto under-researched and rich source material Dupré discusses how subtle public relations strategies fostered the international career of circus jockey Rosita de la Plata, and how they contributed to and shaped her public image and artist persona. German Shakespeare actor Daniel Bandmann and his truly international touring activities are showcased and discussed in Lisa J. Warrington’s paper "Herr Daniel Bandmann and Shakespeare vs. the World". In her examination of Bandmann’s acting in the role of Hamlet (as a German performing in English) and his controversies with theatre critics, she foregrounds the challenges of language and translation as an important factor that was part and parcel of theatrical globalization in the late nineteenth century.

Her tours in Brazil intensified the exchanges between this country's theatrical scene and the French theatre, and the presence of this famous actress indicated the inclusion of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in the "global" theatrical circuit of great stars that was then being formed. While revisiting this process, this article investigates its symbolic meaning and its impacts on a local level (Brazil): how these tours connected Sarah Bernhardt to foreign audiences (thereby helping to shape a global cultural space), and to what extent foreign audiences’ expectations had an impact on the aesthetic features of these productions. From a broader perspective, in this sense, cultural globalization and translocal audiences are essential to assessing the production of French theatre in the nineteenth century. Author Monize Moura is an actress who graduated from the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil. She holds a Masters’ degree in Performing Arts from the University of Strasbourg, France, and a PhD in History and Performing Arts from the University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, France, and the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In 2015 she defended her thesis, entitled "Sarah Bernhardt vue du Brésil (1886-1905)" under the guidance of professors Jean-Claude Yon (UVSQ) and Angela Reis (UNIRIO), thanks to an agreement of joint supervision and research scholarship provided by the Brazilian government through the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Level - or Education - Personnel

  • Herr Daniel Bandmann and Shakespeare Vs. the World
    Journal of Global Theatre History ISSN: 2509-6990 Issue 1, Number 2, 2016, pp. 56-70 Lisa J. Warrington Herr Daniel Bandmann and Shakespeare vs. the World Abstract German actor Daniel Bandmann played his first Hamlet at the age of 20, and made his English language debut as Shylock in New York, 1863. In his prime, he performed extensively in America, Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand, amongst other countries. Though he played roles which ranged from Narcisse and the Corsican twins to Jekyll and Hyde, he was perhaps most closely identified with a handful of Shakespearean roles: Hamlet, Shylock, Macbeth, Othello, Iago. His apparently ungovernable temper led to a love/hate relationship with the critics, played out in public through the newspapers. His responses to criticism open a window into his playing of these roles. This paper examines Bandmann’s acting in the role of Hamlet and the critical interchanges he engaged in around the world, in which he defended his playing of the role. Author Lisa Warrington is an Associate Professor in Theatre Studies at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand. Current research interests (and areas in which she has published) include Shakespeare in performance, directing, Pasifika theatre, site-specific theatre, nineteenth century New Zealand theatre history and the theatre of Aotearoa/New Zealand. She is also a professional theatre director, with many productions to her credit. She runs the Theatre Aotearoa database (http://tadb.otago.ac.nz), which provides a regularly expanded detailed archive of stage productions in New Zealand.

  • A NEW ENDING for TOSCA Patricia Herzog
    Eugène Delacroix, Liberty Leading the People (1830) A NEW ENDING FOR TOSCA Quasi una fantasia Patricia Herzog Copyright @ 2015 by Patricia Herzog DO YOU KNOW TOSCA? Connaissez-vous la Tosca? In the play from which Puccini took his opera, Victorien Sardou’s La Tosca, Tosca’s lover, the painter Cavaradossi, puts this question to the revolutionary Angelotti who has just escaped from prison. Of course, Angelotti knows Tosca. Everyone knows Tosca. Floria Tosca is the most celebrated diva of her day. Sardou wrote La Tosca for Sarah Bernhardt, the most celebrated actress of her day. Bernhardt opened the play in Paris in 1887 and later took it on the road. Puccini saw her in Italy and was inspired to create his own Tosca, which premiered in Rome in 1900. Today we know the opera and not the play. But do we really know Tosca? The places around Rome and the revolutionary times depicted in Tosca are real. The event on which the Tosca story hinges is Napoleon’s victory at Marengo on June 14, 1800. Tosca sings at Teatro Argentina, Rome’s oldest and most distinguished theater. Cavaradossi paints in the Church of Sant’Andrea della Valle. Chief of Police and arch-villain Scarpia resides in the Farnese Palace. Angelotti escapes, and Tosca later jumps to her death, from the Castel Sant’Angelo. Only Tosca is fictional, although, we might say, she is real enough. There were celebrated divas like her-- independent and in control, artistically, financially, sexually. The first thing we learn about Tosca in the opera is how jealous she is.

  • Honors Project Is an Examination of the Experience of Actors on the National Tour Of
    AN EXAMINATION OF THE RUDOLPH NATIONAL TOUR by Samantha McHenry Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of Theatre Texas Christian University Fort Worth, Texas May 7th, 2018 !ii AN EXAMINATION OF THE RUDOLPH NATIONAL TOUR Project Approved: Supervising Professor: Alan Shorter, Ph.D. Department of Theatre Wendy Williams, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Professional Practice in Honors Jennifer Engler, M.F.A. Department of Theatre !iii ABSTRACT My honors project is an examination of the experience of actors on the national tour of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer from two specific perspectives: an objective lens derived from tangible data and a subjective view of the experience exploring anecdotal data. My project will have two main components: 1) who I was, what I was doing, and how the tour related to the TCU experience and 2) information about the touring experience itself. Last winter I had the privilege of being cast in the National Tour of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. This experience provided an inside perspective of national touring, as well as the opportunity to live in a closed community. I thought a structured analysis of this experience would create a unique honors project. Over the course of a month and a half of this tour, I was able to collect both subjective and anecdotal data of a closed group of individuals sharing the same experiences but reacting to them differently. I was also able to experience the “Hawthorne Effect” and the “Observer Expectancy Effect,” as I myself was a part of the experimental group.
