12 Mundo Paralelo Programme.Pdf What happens when circus “ intoxicating, tumultuous abandons its big top and production…” invades a theatre? Donald Hutera, The Times (Immortal) Circus and theatre are two parallel worlds. Nofitstate has always travelled a path somewhere between the two. Our tented shows, Immortal and tabú, reinvented circus in a big top with a promenade style, a multi-stage environment, and a fusion of circus and physical theatre. These award-winning shows have travelled throughout the world to great critical acclaim - amazing audiences wherever they go. This exciting new co-production with National Theatre Wales, Théâtre Tattoo and the Torch Theatre takes the best from both worlds and once again reinvents circus - but this time for a theatre stage. This collaboration has allowed us to deconstruct our circus skills and traditions and put them into a new context, given us the opportunity to re-examine what we do and how we do it. Through this process we have found a new performance vocabulary, developed new equipment and embraced the possibilities and magic of the theatre space. In National Theatre Wales’ 1st year and Nofistate’s 25th we create a truly new and innovative piece of work that is fresh, exciting, accessible and Mundo Paralelo is a co-production engaging.

  • Chapter One – „Digital Technology and Theatres‟……………………………………7

Copyright: Hannah Williams Walton 2011 Photo from the Blast Theory website: http://www.blasttheory.co.uk/bt/index.php Abstract Technology is now an integral part of modern society from the internet; to computers, mobile phones and gaming. It is clear that technology has made massive advances to society in terms of connecting the world however we must also examine the disciplines which may be struggling to adapt. The world of arts and theatre is a form that is routed in tradition which brings limitations in how far people are willing to push against normal conventions. This dissertation explores three sections of technology within theatre. „Digital Technology and Theatres‟ which explores the impact that the internet has had on the theatre in terms of marketing; and participation in the arts; looking at specific theatre websites, and the services Digital Theatre and National Theatre Live. „Technology and the internet in contemporary plays‟ looks at Tim Fountain‟s play Sex Addicts that uses the internet live during performance, and the work that contemporary playwrights have developed to stage modern technology within their work. From Patrick Marber‟s chatroom scene in Closer, to Chatroom by Enid Walsh that is set almost entirely in a virtual world. „Digital Performance‟ explores theatre companies and practitioners that are pushing the boundaries between performance and technology, to create contemporary pieces of theatre. The research identified Connected an organisation dedicated to working with artists who use live and interactive media; this included Duncan Speakmen, Hide and Seek and Blast Theory.

  • The Erosion of Aboriginal Identity in Circus, 1851–1960
    Celebrated at first, then implied and finally denied: the erosion of Aboriginal identity in circus, 1851–1960 Mark Valentine St Leon Circus in a modern form was first presented in London in the late 18th century. Philip Astley (1742–1814), a former cavalryman, gave open-air displays of trick riding in 1768 in a ring within a roped-off field at Lambeth on the southern side of the Thames. These displays were eventually enclosed, roofed over and given in a building, which he called Astley’s Amphitheatre.1 The establishment was popularly referred to as ‘the circus’, a word used at the time to describe the open-air circular recreational riding tracks in and around London.2 The ring, the essence of the circus experience, was a primordial device for grouping an audience around a spectacle of human activity.3 On the other side of the world, Australia’s Aboriginal people employed the same device for ceremonies such as a corroboree, the earliest performances by Aborigines to be witnessed by Euro- peans.4 Astley’s remained the international centre of circus well into the 19th century. By the early 1800s, provincial Britain was served by numerous circuses of various sizes and reputations, which travelled by road.5 These companies and others on the Conti- nent, the newish United States and eventually in the new colonies of Australia mimicked Astley’s programs. Also mimicked were the exquisite equestrian panto- mimes devised by Andrew Ducrow (1798–1842), the principal equestrian, lessee and manager of Astley's from 1825 until his death. Despite the popularity of circus entertainments in 19th-century England, circus performers inherited the inferior social standing of itinerant entertainers.

  • Open Culture: National Theatre Wales by John Mcgrath Guimarães, Open City Project August 2012
    Open Culture: National Theatre Wales by John McGrath Guimarães, Open City Project August 2012 National Theatre Wales is a new theatre for an old but emerging nation. Part of the UK for many centuries, Wales now has a semi-independent government with control over key services such as health, education, and culture. As part of this shift in powers two new theatre companies were created in Wales – Theatr Genedlaethol Cymru and National Theatre Wales. Both company names mean the same thing but in two different languages – Welsh (TGC), the native language of the country spoken by about 25% of the population, and English (NTW), which is spoken by everyone but associated with the big neighbour across the border. So NTW has, of its essence, a complex relationship to nation and identity. Like all theatre companies in the UK however, it is run as an independent organisation not as a government entity. So when I was invited, with a small group of colleagues, to set up the company in 2009 we were free to find our own answers to the questions facing us. Landscape As well as the question of language, a number of other factors about theatre in Wales fed into our thinking: Wales has a relatively small population (3 million) spread quite thinly across the country. While there are some cities, the largest (Cardiff) has a population of just 300,000, and there is a historic distrust of centralisation. The option of a national theatre based in a large building in the capital city was not an idea that had much support.

  • John Bill Ricketts and the Edinburgh Equestrian Circus
    5 Kim Baston La Trobe University, Australia Transatlantic Journeys: John Bill Ricketts and the Edinburgh Equestrian Circus John Bill Ricketts is generally credited as the founder of American circus, setting up a circus in Philadelphia in 1793. This paper examines evidence from Ricketts’ early career in England and Scotland and argues that the successful transplant of the early modern circus form initiated by Philip Astley into America rested on Ricketts’ experiences with a small circus in Edinburgh, established by the equestrian performers George Jones and William Parker. Not only did this circus provide a repertoire and a business model which Ricketts replicated in his American circuses but, crucially, provided him with a network of experienced performers whom he subsequently employed. The first circus in America owed much to the first circus in Scotland. Kim Baston is a Senior Lecturer in Theatre and Drama at La Trobe University, Melbourne. Keywords: John Bill Ricketts, circus, equestrian, American circus, Edinburgh circus, James Jones, George Jones he equestrian performer, John Bill Ricketts, is generally credited with T being the founder of circus in the Americas, setting up a circus in Philadelphia in 1793, and going on to establish circus buildings along the eastern seaboard, and in Canada. As an originating figure, his achievements are listed in almost every history of the American circus, whether popular or academic. Many existing histories, however, attach Ricketts in a seamless lineage to either Philip Astley, founder of Astley’s Amphitheatre and the institution of the early modern circus in England, or, more commonly, to an apprenticeship with Astley’s rival, Charles Hughes, founder of the Royal Circus.1 This link was first questioned by James S.
