This is the moment to m instrumentalize the discipline to cancel the structure ; the concepts are thus reduced to pure and simple signals which together form a composition that is, in a certain sense, the equivalent of the signs and colors i n an oil painting . For example in this documentary the polarization occurs by isolating images described from the filmed ambient . In its turn the documentary will develop with a description which is purely phonological . The words deprived of their meaning, are substituted by some numbers . In so far as the word disappears the number which substitutes for it becomes a simple tone-supporter . The visual part recovers spectator-- impact but at the same time declasses the illusion . The word is no longer objective as happens in certain processes which refer the word as a medium back to itself ; instead there is also less of the didacticism of academic inspiration . So it is that the ambient description stripped of ambiguity of language offers a work translated into every language .

  • Story the Viewp
    Unpublished Notes on the Viewpoint of Story Based on the Work of Mary Overlie Wendell Beavers (Copyright 2000) Story The Viewpoint of Story has a particular provenance which is rooted in a moment of dance history which declared itself anti-story, anti literal and anti illusion.* Several of the most powerful storytelling experiences in the theater I ever witnessed were performances of the Grand Union, a group made up of participants of the Judson Dance Theater. Its members were perceived as both heroic and legendary performers and disgusting cheapeners of the magic that was supposed to happen in the theater. The divide was mostly generational and the result of a natural sort of overthrow of what came before. Their brand of open improvisational performance featured precipitous surprises and a kind of high drama difficult to explain because of the ordinary circumstances from which these events always managed somehow to arise. The next “thing” to happen always seemed inevitable after the fact, but completely impossible to anticipate the moment before. This was storytelling--which got labeled post-modern--but in retrospect had a peculiar link to shamanistic story telling. It may be jarring to link post modernism with shamanism because we associate shamanism with the cultivation and communication of spiritual or other worldly things. Postmodern performers of the sixties and seventies were looking into themselves and their immediate environment. They were communicating or pointing out the nature of the material world before us. There was not supposed to be anything otherworldly about it. The ordinary magic that they practiced and bequeathed to the next generation was quite subversive to the modern dance sensibility, not to mention the high art theater world of ballet etc.

  • Barbara Dilley & Yvonne Rainer with Wendy Perron
    Danspace Project Conversations Without Walls: Barbara Dilley & Yvonne Rainer with Wendy Perron November 21, 2020 Judy Hussie-Taylor Welcome to Danspace Project and our Conversation Without Walls. I'm Judy Hussie-Taylor, Executive ​ ​ Director & Chief Curator. I'm honored to welcome three people I hold in high esteem, Barbara Dilley, Yvonne Rainer, and Wendy Perron. Thank you all for joining us today to celebrate Wendy's new book "The Grand Union: Accidental Anarchists of Downtown Dance 1970-76" published by Wesleyan University Press. So this is an exciting occasion. I just quickly want to thank our Danspace staff and our behind the scenes wizards, especially Yolanda Royster and Ben Kimitch, for holding us all together today on the Zoom. So all three of our guests have extensive histories with Danspace Project. Barbara Dilley co-founded Danspace Project, along with Mary Overlie and Larry Fagin in 1974. Prior to that, Barbara was a member of Merce Cunningham's company from 1963 to 1968. She danced with Yvonne Rainer from 1966 to 1970 and was a member of the Grand Union, which you'll hear a lot about today. She was instrumental in the founding of Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, which is where I met Barbara. She designed the dance department and served as the University's President from 1985 to 1993. Most recently, she is the author of "This Perfect Moment, Teaching Thinking Dancing," which is part autobiography, part workbook. Choreographer, filmmaker, and the author of many books, Yvonne Rainer was a co-founding member of Judson Dance Theater in 1962.

  • A Proposal for an Integrated Rehearsal Methodology for Shakespeare (And Others) Combining Active Analysis and Viewpoints
    “UNPACK MY HEART WITH WORDS”: A Proposal for an Integrated Rehearsal Methodology for Shakespeare (and Others) Combining Active Analysis and Viewpoints by GERALD P. SKELTON, JR. BSc, MFA, MA A practice-based thesis submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences of Kingston University in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2016 I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Gerald P. Skelton, Jr. ABSTRACT The performance of Shakespeare represents a distinct challenge for actors versed in the naturalistic approach to acting as influenced by Stanislavsky. As John Barton suggests, this tradition is not readily compatible with the language-based tradition of Elizabethan players. He states that playing Shakespeare constitutes a collision of “the Two Traditions” (1984, p. 3). The current training-based literature provides many guidelines on analysing and speaking dramatic verse by Shakespeare and others, but few texts include practical ways for contemporary performers to embrace both traditions specifically in a rehearsal context. This research seeks to develop a new actor-centred rehearsal methodology to help modern theatre artists create performances that balance the spontaneity and psychological insight that can be gained from a Stanislavsky-based approach with the textual clarity necessary for Shakespearean drama, and a physical rigour which, I will argue, helps root the voice within the body. The thesis establishes what practitioner Patsy Rodenburg (2005, p. 3) refers to as the need for words, or the impulse to respond to events primarily through language, as the key challenge that contemporary performers steeped in textual naturalism confront when approaching Shakespeare and other classical playwrights.

    In Memory Mary Overlie 1946–2020 Blackboard — Hand — Stone On the day I met Mary Overlie in the summer of 2004, I sat enraptured (if befuddled) as she stood before her iconic blackboard and lectured on the approach to theatre that she orig- inated and developed since the 1970s: The Viewpoints. On the board, she had written the names of The Viewpoints’ six materials: Space, Shape, Time, Emotion, Movement, and Story. Below them were her chalk drawings representing The Viewpoints’ foundational principles: six squares to show “solid state theatre” and its “deconstruction”; the “vertical” tower of classicism and modernism collapsing to the “horizontal” assemblage of postmodernism; and the circle of “­reification,” her name for the artists’ process of moving concepts, ideas, forms, and percep- tions from the unknown to the known and back again. Then, she flipped the board to reveal her drawing of “The Bridge,” with its nine supportive frames for Viewpoints study, which led from “News of a Difference” to “The Original Anarchist.” About an hour into her lecture, Mary extended her arm to gaze inquisitively at her hand. After some time, she said, “Any moment this will become art. This is The Viewpoints.” After years of talking with Mary, writing about her, teaching The Viewpoints, and creating perfor- mances through her work, I’ve come to understand the greater significance of my friend and mentor’s simple act. For me, it speaks to who Mary Overlie was, as a Bessie Award–winning ­choreographer, dancer, teacher, theorist, and comrade. What she taught with that gesture was the quiet confidence she modeled for her students through her life, art, and teaching.

  • “In the Quarter Century Since Terry Eagleton's Landmark Study, Literary
    “In the quarter century since Terry Eagleton’s landmark study, Literary Theory: An Introduction (Oxford: Blackwell, 1983), there have been dozens of books that aim at achieving a virtually encyclopedic chronicle of the various schools and methods of literary interpretation. Amidst this daunting array of thoughtful meditations on the myriad ways of characterizing the thing called “literature,” Herman Rapaport’s Literary Theory Toolkit presents a strikingly innovative perspective on theory and criticism that combines succinct and accessible accounts of the most signifi cant approaches to the experience of literature with a unique and compelling orientation to both contemporary avant-garde experimental poetics and performance theory. This volume will establish itself as an indispensable resource for anyone interested in contemporary thinking about everything from Saussurean linguistics to Badiou’s relation to Derrida to Meryl Streep’s style of acting, from Milton’s politics to the crisis of thinking about community after the Holocaust. Rapaport’s Toolkit combines an original refl ection on the theoretical act at large with a pedagogically useful and reliable synthesis of the enormous diversity of literary theories over the past century.” – Ned Lukacher, University of Illinois at Chicago Also Available Modern Literary Criticism and Theory by M.

  • Copy, Transform, Combine
    Copy, Transform, Combine Anne Bogart n 1979, I was invited to join the faculty of the Experimental Theatre Wing (ETW) at New York University where I remained as an adjunct for seven years. IIn many ways, teaching undergraduates at ETW became my own degreeless graduate school in directing. At first I was unsure of what to teach. Still in my mid-twenties, my creative work up until then had been directing hardscrabble devised inventions, mostly on the streets and rough spaces of downtown New York. Ron Argelander, the founder of ETW who invited me to teach at NYU, encouraged me to engage the students with the kind of work that he had seen me create in the downtown theatre scene. It was at ETW that I met fellow fac- ulty member Mary Overlie, the choreographer and the inventor of what she, in those days, called The Six Viewpoints. We became good friends and we worked together on several productions with our students. We co-directed a site-specific piece entitled Artourist and together we choreographed the dances for my produc- tion of South Pacific. Mary introduced me to her Six Viewpoints and I was galvanized, hooked. The students, empowered by the parameters of Mary’s Viewpoints (Space, Shape, Time, Emotion, Movement, and Story), relished the freedom to create evocative stage moments themselves rather than wait for a leader to tell them what to do. Much of the theatre at that time felt to me staid, literal, and conservative with the exception of some courageous downtown artists and companies, including The Performance Group, Mabou Mines, and Richard Foreman.

    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY Authority, Quotation, and Collective Composition in 20th and 21st Century U.S. Theatre and Drama A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Field of English By Scott Proudfit EVANSTON, ILLINOIS December 2008 2 © Copyright by Scott Proudfit 2008 All Rights Reserved 3 To Kelly, Jack, and Emily 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I must give thanks to Prof. Susan Manning. I could not have wished for a more enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and understanding chair for this project. From my first day at Northwestern, Prof. Manning has encouraged me to pursue (and has modeled for me) the type of interdisciplinary work that many in academia speak of but few practice. She has cultivated (and defended) my interests in theatre, performance, and drama as no one else could have. I also could not have wished for a wiser or more sympathetic committee. Prof. Tracy Davis has been a mentor in my professional work both here at Northwestern and among the fellowship of scholars outside this university. Her work ethic is one I will forever strive to match. Prof. Jeff Masten’s writing on authorship was the inspiration behind this project. In addition, his example as an instructor, and his friendship, has made all the difference to me at Northwestern. Prof. Will West is someone I have been looking up to as an instructor since my days in high school. To have him in the room at my defense, to receive his guidance and suggestions throughout this process, has been a comfort and privilege.
