Då den balettmapp de hade var provisorisk behövdes det en ny. Projektet innebar att utforma denna mapp med innehållande lösa delar, konstruktion, design och layout. Balettmappen inne- håller information om balettkompaniet, text och mycket bilder. I mappen ska det också finnas plats för en DVD-skiva, och de två lösa delarna som ska integreras är dansarnas biografier och repertoaren. Arbetet har en fördjupande del som behandlar sex operahus och deras design in- och utvändigt. För att ge en komplett bild av varför designen ser ut som den gör finns en inledande del och även en kort historisk bakgrund till varje operahus. Syftet är att studera husens exteriör och interiör och se hur den tidens mode påverkat deras utformande, samt hur utseendet varierar mellan operahus från olika epoker.

At the time, their current folder was a temporary solution and they needed a new one. The project involves designing this folder with its inner parts, construction, design and layout. The ballet folder contains information about the ballet company in text and pictures. The folder must also include a DVD-disc and the two separate parts, the dancers biography and the reper- toire, to integrate in the folder. This Degree Project has a theoretical part that discusses six opera houses and their interior and exte- rior. To give a complete image of why the houses design look the way they do, there is an introduction and also a short historical part to each one of the opera houses. The purpose is to study the exterior and interior of the houses and try to find out how the current style at the time influenced their design, and how the architecture varies between opera houses from different epochs.

Bakgrund Fotoavdelningen på Kungliga Operan har tillsammans med marknads- avdelningen och Kungliga Baletten länge haft planer på att göra en så kallad balettmapp. Idéer har funnits och ämnet har diskuterats mellan de olika avdelningarna men har lagts på is på grund av bland annat brist på resurser. 1.2. Syfte Denna balettmapp ska presentera Kungliga Operan i Stockholm och Kungliga Baletten inför andra operahus världen över. Mappen ska skick- as ut inför de turnéer som Kungliga Baletten gör runt om i världen. 1.3. Mål Att skapa en mapp som med text och bilder visar Kungliga Balettens dansare, Operans produktioner och alla de känslor som går att förmedla genom balettens alla rörelser. Mappen ska också gå att exportera till PDF för att kunna skickas över Internet. 1.4. Metod Tillsammans med kontaktpersonen på Kungliga Operan, Operans foto- graf Alexander Kenney, gå igenom de tankar samt det ytterst tunna material som finns för tillfället. Kontakt med marknadschefen Lennart Lundblad, balettchefen Madeleine Onne och kungliga balettens dansare kommer också att vara en väsentlig del av förarbetet.

  • 104 Nordic Theatre Studies Vol. 27: No. 1 ABSTRACT Te Transnationalism
    ABSTRACT !e Transnationalism of Swedish and Russian National !eatres in the Second Half of the Eighteenth Century: How Foreign Performative Art Sharpened the Aesthetics of National Identity In this article, I consider the formation of national theatres in Sweden and Russia under the guidance of King Gustav III and Empress Catherine II. Both Swedish and Russian theatres in the second half of the eighteenth century consolidated their nationalism by appealing to various national cultures and absorbing them. One of the achievements of the Enlightenment was the rise in popularity of thea- tre and its transnationalism. Several European countries, like Russia, Sweden, Po- land, Hungary and others, decided to follow France and Italy’s example with their older traditions, and participate in the revival of the theatrical arts, while aiming at the same time to preserve their national identities. !e general tendency in all European countries of “second theatre culture” was toward transnationalism, i.e. the acceptance of the inter-penetration between the various European cultures with the unavoidable impact of French and Italian theatres. !e historical plays of the two royal dramatists – Gustav III and Catherine II – were based on nation- al history and formulated following models of mainly French and English drama. !e monarchs resorted to the help of French, Italian and German composers, stage designers, architects, choreographers and actors to produce their plays. However, such cooperation only emphasized Swedish as well as Russian national- ism. Despite many similarities, Gustav III and Catherine II di"ered somewhat in how each positioned their own brand of nationalism. By delving deeper into the details of the formation of the national theatres by these monarchs, I will explore similarities and di"erences between their two theatres.
