(BOSTON) The second season of international theatre programming by ArtsEmerson: The World On Stage continues with the Boston premiere of The Andersen Project. In this frequently comic masterpiece by theatre visionary Robert Lepage, a Canadian rock-‘n-roll writer is unexpectedly commissioned by the Opéra Garnier in Paris to write a libretto for a children's opera, based on the work of Hans Christian Andersen, who, as it turns out, never really liked children. Lepage’s new Ring cycle for The Metropolitan Opera will be performed in its entirety in New York, spring 2012. Performances take place March 24 – April 1, 2012 at the Cutler Majestic Theatre (219 Tremont Street, in Boston’s Theatre District). Tickets, from $25 – $89, are on sale now at www.artsemerson.org or by phone at (617) 824-8400. Hailed by The Guardian UK as “a theatrical conjurer, whose dazzling shows have captivated audiences around the world,” writer and director Robert Lepage is known worldwide for his creative and original approach to theatre. In this modern fairy tale, Yves Jacques ( The Far Side of the Moon ) is a one-man tour-de-force as the Canadian songwriter caught by surprise as he is asked to write a libretto. Arriving in Paris, he discovers that his living quarters, borrowed from a friend, are on the fourth floor of a building that is also home to a peep show, frequented by the Opéra Garnier’s administrator (a man with some odd and unusual likings), in the city's red light district. He also meets a young janitor and graffiti artist of North African descent, and a dog who could well be guiding the tale along its way. Freely inspired from two stories by Andersen (“The Dryad” and “The Shadow”) and from anecdotes drawn from the famed Danish author’s Parisian travels, The Andersen Project calls on some of Lepage’s recurring themes: the confrontation of romanticism and modernism, of recognized and underground art forms, between past and present. However, in this new work, he also explores more troubling territories: questions about sexual identity, unfulfilled fantasies and a thirst for recognition and fame that are drawn from Andersen’s life and writings, only to serve as a filigree to the modern tale. Recommended for ages 14 and up. Robert Lepage has shaken the dogma of classical stage direction to its foundations over his career, especially through his use of new technologies. Born in Quebec in 1957, Lepage studied in Canada and France, and founded the multidisciplinary production company, Ex Machina, in 1994. Ex Machina brings together actors, writers, set designers, technicians, opera singers, puppeteers, computer graphic designers, video artists and musicians. Under his artistic direction, this team produced a steady output of plays, beginning with The Seven Streams of the River Ota (1994), A Midsummer Night’s Dream (1995) and a solo production, Elsinore (1995). In 1994, he made his début in the world of cinema. He wrote and directed his first feature film, Le Confessional , which appeared the following year at the Cannes Festival Directors’ Fortnight. He went on to direct Polygraph in 1996, Nô in 1997, Possible Worlds in 2000 (his first feature film written in English), and finally, in 2003, a film adaptation of his play The Far Side of the Moon . For more information about Robert Lepage, visit http://lacaserne.net/ . Yves Jacques began his career on comedy television in Quebec, with imitations of famous political figures that became classics and earned him numerous Gemini Awards. He then made a splash on the big screen in Jesus of Montreal (2004) portraying a greedy lawyer who defends the Devil. Since then Jacques has appeared in a number of films including the 2011 Academy Award-winning picture, The Barbarian Invasions (Best Foreign Language Film).

  • The Far Side of the Moon Credits and Biographies
    The Far Side of the Moon credits and biographies by Robert Lepage based on an original idea by Peder Bjurman written in collaboration with Adam Nashman produced by Ex Machina Ex Machina In 1994, when Robert Lepage asked his collaborators to help find a name for his new company, he had one condition: the word theatre could not be part of the name. Ex Machina is thus a multidisciplinary company bringing together actors, writers, set designers, technicians, opera singers, puppeteers, computer graphic designers, video artists, contortionists and musicians. Ex Machina’s creative team believes that the performing arts - dance, opera, music - should be mixed with recorded arts - filmmaking, video art and multimedia. That there must be meetings between scientists and playwrights, between set painters and architects, and between artists from Québec and the rest of the world. New artistic forms will surely emerge from these gatherings. Ex Machina wants to rise to the challenge and become a laboratory, an incubator for a form of theatre that will reach and touch audiences from this new millennium. Robert Lepage Versatile in every form of theatre craft, Robert Lepage is equally talented as a director, playwright, actor and film director. His creative and original approach to theatre has won him international acclaim and shaken the dogma of classical stage direction to its foundations, especially through his use of new technologies. Among his most noticed work for the stage: Dragons’ Trilogy (1985), Needles and Opium (1991), The Far Side of The Moon (2000), The Andersen Project (2005), Lipsynch (2007), his solo performance 887 (2015) and his most recent production Quills (2016); his multimedia creations: The Image Mill (2008) and The Library at Night (2015); at the opera: The Damnation of Faust (1999), The Nightingale and Other short Fables (2009), Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen (2010) and L'Amour de loin (2015).

The following three films are analyzed for the purposes of this paper: Le déclin de l’empire américain (The Decline of the American Empire, 1986), Les invasions barbares (The Barbarian Invasions, 2003) and L’âge des ténèbres (Days of Darkness, 2007). Keywords: film analysis; design; Denys Arcand Resumo: Apresentação de uma taxonomia para análise de objetos em filmes e aplicação ao trabalho do cineasta canadense Denys Arcand com o objetivo de identificar e analisar como objetos mais representativos da vida cotidiana são utilizados nos filmes. Os seguintes filmes são analisados conforme os propósitos deste artigo: Le déclin de l’empire américain (O declínio do império americano, 1986), Les invasions barbares (Invasões bárbaras, 2003) e L’âge des ténèbres (A era da inocência, 2007). Palavras-chave: análise fílmica; design; Denys Arcand Talking Objects To analyze objects which are significant in Denys Arcand’s body of work, it was necessary to delimit a corpus, selecting films and objects which met the criteria of our predetermined categories. The first step in our methodology was determining an appropriate taxonomy for analyzing objects in films (see GAMBARATO; MALAGUTI, 2008, p. 37-57). We then employed this taxonomy as a model to help us to identify and analyze the most representative objects used in Arcand’s films.
