  • Oscar Wilde Described the Theatre As “The Greatest of All Art Forms, the Most
    T H E A T R E O F C ONFLICT , T H E A T R E O F C HANGE MIRIAM GARDIN AND SUE SEMAAN Oscar Wilde described the theatre as “the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being” (ThingExist.com). Theatre people know that theatre changes opinions, even changes lives. Most performance pieces deal with issues that, the artists hope, will affect those watching. Indeed, many theatre historians believe that performance comes from our most basic human need to connect to other human beings – to share stories, to imagine experiencing other people’s experiences, to learn from each other, to laugh and to cry together. The live enactment of a story helps audiences connect to the story directly. News media can oftentimes distance its audience – people tune out, or just ignore the stories. In live performance, those ideas and images become real people with real stories and the distance suddenly shortens. With this in mind, as theatre professionals, and students of and believers in the theatre, we set out to look at how theatre tells the stories of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and how audiences receive those stories. A Lebanese American, and an American who became Israeli, we came together to look at the subject. We focused on the East Coast to find out what theatre is being produced around the topic, what the mission of such work is, and how the audience is responding.

  • Nuevo Cine Argentino De Rapado a Historias Extraordinarias Veinticinco Años, Veinticinco Libros
    Nuevo Cine Argentino De Rapado a Historias extraordinarias Veinticinco años, veinticinco libros El ciclo político inaugurado en Argentina a fines de 1983 se abrió bajo el auspicio de generosas promesas de justicia, renovación de la vida pública y ampliación de la ciudadanía, y conoció logros y retrocesos, fortalezas y desmayos, sobresaltos, obstáculos y reveses, en los más diversos planos, a lo largo de todos estos años. Que fue- ron años de fuertes transformaciones de los esquemas productivos y de la estructura social, de importantes cambios en la vida pública y privada, de desarrollo de nuevas formas de la vida colectiva, de actividad cultural y de consumo y también de expansión, hasta ni- veles nunca antes conocidos en nuestra historia, de la pobreza y la miseria. Hoy, veinticinco años después, nos ha parecido interesante el ejercicio de tratar de revisar estos resultados a través de la publica- ción de esta colección de veinticinco libros, escritos por académicos dedicados al estudio de diversos planos de la vida social argentina para un público amplio y no necesariamente experto. La misma tiene la pretensión de contribuir al conocimiento general de estos procesos y a la necesaria discusión colectiva sobre estos problemas. De este modo, dos instituciones públicas argentinas, la Biblioteca Nacional y la Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento, a través de su Instituto del Desarrollo Humano, cumplen, nos parece, con su deber de contribuir con el fortalecimiento de los resortes cognos- citivos y conceptuales, argumentativos y polémicos, de la democra- cia conquistada hace un cuarto de siglo, y de la que los infortunios y los problemas de cada día nos revelan los déficits y los desafíos.

Ariel Perelman is advocaat, net zoals z'n vader, maar hij weet nog niet goed wat hij van zijn toekomst moet verwachten. Hij kent de gewoontes, smaken en de dagelijkse bezigheden van zijn gerespecteerde vader door en door. Ariel doet alsof hij niet op zijn vader wil lijken, noch zijn levensweg, op voorhand uitgestippeld, wil volgen, maar hoe meer hij zich daartegen verzet, hoe meer hij op hem lijkt. Hoe ontkomt hij aan de familiegewoontes? Hoeveel tijd is daarvoor nodig? Hoe begint men daaraan? Is er een gebruiksaanwijzing? Naarmate hij zijn eigen identiteit tracht te schetsen, begint zoon Perelman, met enige vrees, de erfenis van zijn afkomst, het onveranderlijke gegeven, kortom datgene wat hij niet kan veranderen, te accepteren. Wat hem problemen schept is zijn identiteit op te bouwen aan de hand van datgene wat hem van zijn vader onderscheidt, van alles wat hij nog moet ontdekken. Family Law is het aangrijpende en intieme verhaal van een vader en een zoon, op weg om hun rol te ontdekken. Family Law (Derecho de Familia) 122 min. / 35 mm / Kleur/ Dolby SRD / Spaans gesproken, Nederlands ondertiteld / Argentinië 2006 Nederlandse theatrale distributie: Cinemien Belgische theatrale distributie: ABC Distribution DVD uitbreng : Homescreen FAMILY LAW – synopsis Le jeune Ariel Perelman est avocat pro-deo et professeur d’université.
