  • An Excursion to and from Situational Urban Scenography
    Tactics of the Other Everyday: An Excursion to and from Situational Urban Scenography Mengzhe Tang Abstract: For a scenographic reading of urban settings, attentions are directed to the small, mundane and the everyday, which penetrate the non-institutional, always neglected, but most underlying aspects of urban life. Scattered in the most ordinary corners around the city, the scenes framed by a scenographic scope could nevertheless touch upon spatial, imaginary and situational potentials in perceiving and understanding urban spatial phenomena, diverting from the real and rational into the scenographic “other world”. These small, everyday yet partly surreal scenes, coupled with the notions of Tactic (Michel de Certeau, 1984) and Construction of Situation (Guy Debord, 1957), further come to a political gesture of resisting (destroying) the overwhelming institutionalization and standardization of contemporary life, as well as urban spaces. This progress from framing, association to tactics delineates a theatrical excursion departing from the real city into the fictitious, and eventually returning back to reality, yet with some residue imaginary subversive passion in turn to transform the real urban space. Introduction: In the poetic film The Color of Pomegranates (Tsvet granata, Armenfilm 1969), the film director of Armenian descent Sergei Parajanov, with his melancholically archaic and theatrical cinematic language, created a fascinating and dream-like world, in which the life of the Armenian poet Sayat Nova and his particular epoch gradually

  • Parsi Theater, Urdu Drama, and the Communalization of Knowledge: a Bibliographic Essay
    Parsi Theater, Urdu Drama, and the Communalization of Knowledge: A Bibliographic Essay I its remarkable century-long history traversing the colonial and nation- alist eras, the Parsi theater was unique as a site of communal harmony. The Parsi theater began in Bombay in the early s and fanned out across South and Southeast Asia by the s. During the twentieth cen- tury, major Parsi theatrical companies flourished in Lahore, Delhi, and Calcutta, exerting a huge impact on the development of modern drama, regional music, and the cinema. Parsis, Hindus, Muslims, Anglo-Indians, and Baghdadi Jews consorted amicably in both residential and traveling companies. Although company ownership usually remained in Parsi hands, actors were drawn from many communities, as were professional writers, musicians, painters, stage hands, and other personnel. As Såmn≥t^ Gupta makes clear, it was Parsis, non-Parsis, Hindus, Muslims, and Christians who spread the art of theatre by founding theatrical companies, who built playhouses and encouraged drama, who became actors and popularized the art of acting, who composed innumerable dramas in Gujarati, Hindi, and Urdu, who composed songs and defended classical music, and who wrote descriptions of the Parsi stage and related matters.1 Audiences similarly were heterogeneous, comprised of diverse relig- ious, ethnic, and linguistic groups and representing a wide range of class 1Såmn≥t^ Gupta, P≥rsµ T^iy®ªar: Udb^av aur Vik≥s (Allahabad: Låkb^≥ratµ Prak≥shan, ), dedication (samarpan), p. • T A U S positions.

  • 7 & 8 Stagecraft Costume Plots
    Performing Arts Virtual Learning 7 & 8 Stagecraft Costume Plots May 6, 2020 7 & 8 Stagecraft Lesson: May 5, 2020 Objective/Learning Target: TH:Pr5.1.6.b. Articulate how technical elements are integrated into a drama/ theatre work. Your Mission: Yesterday and last week as you read the script 30 Horrible Middle School Catastrophes you made a chart of the technical needs of the show in 5 categories: ● Scenery ● Costuming ● Sound ● Lighting ● Props Today we continue this project by finding the actual costumes needed for our 30 Characters. So get out your chart of technical needs. Creating A Costume Plot The costume plot is a list or chart that shows which characters appear in each scene, what they are wearing and their overall movement throughout the play. This helps track the specific costume needs of every character. It can also identify any potential costume challenges, such as very quick changes between scenes. We have created the list, now for the actual look of the costumes. Costume Plot Example This is the designers concept and the actual costumes . for the movie “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood” Costume Plot Example This is the designers concept and the actual costumes for the Witch in “Into the Woods” This is the example from our chart for the design of the character “One” from 10 Costumes Horrible Catastrophes of Middle School.
