Postdramatic Dramaturgies
This book compiles lectures by the world's leading practitioners of postdramatic theatre from East Asia and the German-speaking world, which were given at Asia's only dramaturgy degree program at The Central Academy of Drama in Beijing 2018/19. It includes first-time English-language scripts of the discussed plays. The material is complemented by contextualizing essays by the program founder Li Yinan and its co-developer Kai Tuchmann. Hans-Thies Lehmann contributes the foreword to this volume. This rare compilation enables the reader to gain a unique insider's impression of postdramatic theatre's artistic thinking and working methods and informs about its manifold manifestations. With contributions from Hans-Werner Kroesinger, Lee Kyung-Sung, Li Yinan, Boris Nikitin, Kai Tuchmann, Wang Mengfan, Wen Hui, Zhao Chuan and Zhuang Jiayun.
Dramaturgy to Make Visible
This book argues that dramaturgy makes things visible and does so in two distinct and interrelating ways: creative processes and formal elements of performance are rendered visible and readable; and performance dramaturgy becomes an expanded practice in which performance is a locus for creating wide-ranging events and activities. This exploration defines dramaturgy as a perceptibly transforming agency in the construction, presentation and reception of contemporary performance; and it shows how contemporary performance has an intrinsic dramaturgical aspect whose proliferation of dramaturgical practices has led to a far-reaching reinvention of what contemporary theatre is. In doing so, this book deals with a careful selection of performance practices, including theatrical adaptations, new media dramaturgy, contemporary dance, installation-performance, postdramatic theatre, visionary works by auteurs, and revivals of well-known stage shows. This study will be of great interest to students and scholars in theater studies, performance studies, cultural studies, curating, and dance scholarship.
Performance Making and the Archive
This book investigates theories and practices shaped by a performance’s relationship to the archive. The contributions in the volume examine how the changing nature of performance practices has made it imperative to understand how the archive and archival practices could add to the performance work. They explore a variety of themes, including artistic engagement with the archive in both conceptual and material terms; physical, virtual and digital forms; publicly and privately collected; oral, written and digital ways; or organized and unorganized collections. Finally, the volume examines how archives are modelled on existing structure and the ways in which they can be brought into discourses and practices of performance making through engagement and contestation. A novel approach to performance theory, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of performance studies, media and culture studies, studies of technology and art as also literature and literary criticism.

(Asian) Dramaturgs’ Network: Sensing, Complexity, Tracing and Doing
(Asian) Dramaturgs’ Network: Sensing, Complexity, Tracing and Doing explores the histories, stories, and practices of the Asian Dramaturgs’ Network (ADN), a network of dramaturgs, performance makers, cultural producers and performance scholars in the wider Asian region that has been active since 2016. It explores two questions that have emerged through ADN dialogues and events. Are there Asian or Asia-based dramaturgies of practice and performance? And how does one write about these within contextually grounded frames, moving beyond Eurocentric paradigms? In selected essays, extracts from presentations, case studies and critical reflections, the collection explores the story of ADN, and the future of dramaturgy in and for performance in the region. It makes a strong case for rigorous and vibrant dramaturgical thinking, and is an open invitation for further dramaturgical work, opening up sustainable spaces for thinking and doing dramaturgy in the region.

The Routledge Companion to Theatre and Politics
The Routledge Companion to Theatre and Politics is a volume of critical essays, provocations, and interventions on the most important questions faced by today’s writers, critics, audiences, and theatre and performance makers. Featuring texts written by scholars and artists who are diversely situated (geographically, culturally, politically, and institutionally), its multiple perspectives broadly address the question "How can we be political now?" To respond to this question, Peter Eckersall and Helena Grehan have created eight galvanising themes as frameworks or rubrics to rethink the critical, creative, and activist perspectives on questions of politics and theatre. Each theme is linked t...
Die Regeln des Spiels
Das Buch führt in die Grundlagen und Abläufe der Erstellung eines Theaterspielplans ein und beleuchtet dessen Bedeutung für die Programmierung und das Management von Theatern. Es füllt damit eine wichtige Lücke in der Theater- und Theatermanagement-Literatur. Schmidt untersucht die Spielplan-Gestaltung öffentlicher Theater auf der Grundlage von ausführlichen Spielplan-Analysen, zahlreichen Umfragen unter Dramaturgen und einer mehrjährigen Feldstudie. Aus den Ergebnissen entwickelt der Autor ein Modell der Spielplan-Gestaltung als zentrales künstlerisches und ökonomisches Managementinstrument des Theaters. Der Inhalt · Der Traum vom idealen Spielplan · Das deutsche öffentliche...
Resilient und Flexibel
Theater zu den Menschen bringen – mit dieser einfachen Prämisse erreichen mobile Theaterformen Publikum in Gebieten außerhalb der kulturellen Zentren im deutschsprachigen Raum. Regionale mobile Theaterprojekte schlagen ihre Bühne an öffentlichen Plätzen auch in den kleinsten Gemeinden auf. Überregional bespielen Tourneetheater Gastspielhäuser in Städten ohne Ensemble. Was bedeutet die immer wieder neue Verortung der Inszenierung für die Künstlerinnen und Künstler aber auch für die Rezeption? Anhand der Analyse von Interviews, Inszenierungen und Spielplänen geht die Arbeit dieser Frage unter anderem in Bezug auf die gesellschaftliche Bedeutung des mobilen Theaters nach. Die Corona-Pandemie hat insbesondere für das überregionale mobile Theater gravierende Einschnitte gebracht. Die langfristigen Nachwirkungen sind noch nicht abzusehen. Beschreibbar bleibt die Dramaturgie der Ereignisse, der Maßnahmen und der Antworten der Theaterschaffenden auf diese Krise. Der Ausnahmezustand offenbart so die Grundeigenschaften des mobilen Theaters.
Zugänge zur Public History
Geschichte in der Öffentlichkeit hat Konjunktur. Beteiligt sind die unterschiedlichsten Institutionen, Medien und Professionen. Es existiert eine Vielzahl von Präsentationsformen mit jeweils spezifischen Vermittlungsanlässen, -intentionen und -reichweiten. Dieser Band soll einen ersten Überblick darüber vermitteln, unter welchen Rahmenbedingungen und Zielvorgaben in einzelnen Teilgebieten von Public History gearbeitet wird. Die Beiträge greifen Beispiele für einzelne Formate (Film und Computerspiel), Orte (Museum und Gedenkstätte) sowie Inszenierungsformen (Theater und Reenactment) auf. Die Autorinnen und Autoren stellen teils grundsätzliche Überlegungen an, teils setzen sie neue konzeptionelle Akzente oder berichten über ungewöhnliche Einrichtungen und Aktivitäten. Die knappen und eingängigen Texte eignen sich gut als Seminarlektüre.
