Teater: instruktion og produktion

"Opera er en slags følelsernes fitnesscenter. Her kan vi træne både vores kærlighedsmuskel og vores angstmuskel. Ligesom vi går i fitnesscentret for at træne vores fysiske muskler, så vi er i form til at møde tilværelsen. Men det er ligesom nede i fitnesscentret: Det nytter ikke noget at stå og kigge på maskinerne. Man skal selv gøre arbejdet." Kasper Holten er en eksperimenterende og ofte kontroversiel instruktør og operachef. Hans bog er ikke en operaguide. Det er hans personlige fortælling om opera: Om hvordan han selv som barn blev grebet af kunstarten; om stemmerne; om koret; om arierne; om 6 operamesterværker (Carmen, Orfeo, Figaros bryllup, Wozzeck, Valkyrien, La traviata); om de store operahuse, hvor han har instrueret (Operaen på Holmen, Wiener Staatsoper, Royal Opera House Covent Garden, La Scala); om instruktørens, dirigentens og scenografens rolle; om hvordan en operaopsætning bliver til. Alt er krydret med hans egne refleksioner, anekdoter, eksempler og fotos. Playliste med 43 indspilninger af arier, kor etc.

Katrine Wiedemann har skrevet en personlig bog om de store livstemaer, som teaterstykkerne, hun har instrueret igennem de seneste 23 år, vækker til live. Under opsætningen af "Farlige forbindelser" i München reflekterer hun over den kunstneriske proces og forholdet mellem liv og kunst: Hvordan de store historier om magt, angst, lidenskab, menneskelig fejlbarlighed, feminisme og kærlighed bliver nærværende i hendes liv, når hun arbejder konkret med dem på scenen. Og hvordan hun forsøger at gøre de store, klassiske fortællinger vedkommende for et moderne publikum. ”Ved gudernes bord” er en kunstners særegne forsøg på at komme rundt om alle livets store temaer og en fortælling om at slå sig på kunsten.

Christian Lollike er en ener i nyere dansk scenekunst. Den kontroversielle dramatiker går helt tæt på, hvad det vil sige at være menneske i vores tid. Han fletter kunst og virkelighed sammen og konfronterer os med voldsomme temaer som terror, krig og flygtninge.Lollikes værker er unikke, men i deres legesyge trækker de samtidig på historiske formeksperimenter. I hans forestillinger finder man derfor spor fra både den tidlige avantgarde, performancekunsten, dokumentarteatret og ikke mindst det postdramatiske teater.Scenekunst på kanten tager læseren med fra det eksperimenterende teaters rødder til den levende kunst, vi ser på scenen i dag. Og den viser Lollike som kunstner, menneske og teatermanden, der provokerer og inviterer til debat og eftertænksomhed. Dansk teaters enfant terrible er ikke bange for at gå til kanten – og videre endnu.Det er bogen til alle kunst- og teaterinteresserede, der vil vide mere om dansk teaters store provokatør.Birgitte Dam er cand.mag. i dansk og teatervidenskab og har undervist i litteratur ved bl.a. Københavns Universitet. Hun har udgivet adskillige bøger om scenekunst og anmeldt teater ved Dagbladet Information og tidsskriftet Peripeti.

Numerous books have been written on the art of directing from the classical to contemporary times. Many of these works have concentrated on different facets of the discipline of directing such as the definition, history, and development of directing, as well as the qualities, functions, and types of directors. However, areas of directing that have not received much scholarly attention include works that serve as manuals for budding directors and studies that reflect the theory and practice of directing in Africa, especially from Nigerian theatre practitioners. While studies on directing, such as Wainstein's 'Stage Directing: A Director's Itinerary' (2012), Dean and Carra's 'Fundamentals of Play Directing' (2009), and Johnson's 'Visions Towards a Mission: The Art of Interpretative Directing' (2003), provide general insights on the art of directing plays, Emasealu's 'The Theatre of Ola Rotimi: Production and Performance Dynamics' (2010) and Uwatt's 'Playwriting and Directing in Nigeria: Interviews with Ola Rotimi' (2004), document the directorial practice of the Nigerian director, Ola Rotimi. Aside from documenting the directing techniques of key Western directors, this book's advantage over existing works is that it documents the directorial styles of Ola Rotimi and other West African directors, as well as the directorial techniques of directors from South, North, and East Africa. It also traces the evolution of the theatre stage, examines the directorial implications of the arena, proscenium, thrust, traverse and African traditional theatre stage orientations, and engages the notions of blocking, movement, directorial concept and directorial approach.In particular, this book aspires to contribute to the discourse on play directing with perspectives from African theatre. It also fills gaps in previous studies by delving into the notions of theatre and directing, the director's history, qualities, and tools. It examines types of directors, functions of the director, directing principles, and key Western and African theories of performance. It also evaluates the history of the theatre stage, the characteristics, benefits and drawbacks, and directorial implications of the arena stage, proscenium stage, thrust stage, traverse stage, African traditional theatre stage, the use of blocking, movement, and the meaning of directorial concept and directorial approach.

One of the renowned playwrights of Odisha, Shankar Prasad Tripathy's Nabakalebara is a historical play. It's so vast that all other cultures can confluence in its perennial streams of human values. Its universality and all-embracing approach appeal to people worldwide forever. 'Why we celebrate Nabakalebar' is foregrounded and well-substantiated thematically in the play. The ideas mapped in this work of art can be critically analyzed as follows: (1) the human desire for territorial expansion as in the character of Akbar, the Great and Mukunda Deva, to some extent because of his alliance with Rudranarayan of Bhurishrestha of the 'Land of Banga' to fight against Suleiman Karrani, the King of 'Gouda Land' (2) The primal instinct of love obliterating social boundaries persists between Kalapahada, commander-in-Chief of the combined force of the King of Kalinga and Bhurishrestha and Gulnaz, the daughter of Suleiman Karrani, of 'Land of Gouda' (3) the traumatic experiences of the protagonist lacking spiritual bliss, after fulfilling his love-marriage with Gulnaz and his subsequent revengeful acts against the deities and the people of Odisha, (4) Reinstallation of Brahmas in the idols and their mounting on the bejewelled throne (Ratnasinghashana) at the Jagannatha Temple, Puri reaffirms and rejuvenates faith in the people again that Brahma (Supreme Soul) is One and only One, eternal and can't be destroyed by anybody and anything in the material world. That's why, Kalapahada, at last broke apart, while trying to burn in fire. Jagannatha is the root cause of everything happening in the world. His blessing helps the people move forward in day-to-day life.The Nabakalebara festival is deeply rooted in the psyches of the people who love the Jagannatha cult. It's similar to the demise and rebirth of life in all religions of the world. It happens every twelve years. Anything that comes out of this earth is subject to decay and change. The external bodily forms of the idols are buried under the soil in Koilibaikuntha, Puri, whereas the Brahma remains intact and installed again in the newly made wooden idols. There is one and only one Brahma in the world. That can't be drowned in water, burnt in fire; that can't be severed or split and will remain unaltered for ages. Once the idols are half-burnt and thrown into the sea, they can't be worshipped. The new idols (Darubrahmas) are installed and mounted on the (Ratnasinghasana) bejewelled throne at Jagannatha Temple, Puri. Selection of Darus as per the order of Goddess Mangala, and its felling after chanting the mantras, and performing Yajna, transferring the Darus loaded on bullock carts to Jagannatha Temple, Puri, and replacing older idols by the newer ones, and lastly the installing Brahmas in the newer Darus are the processes related to Nabakalebara ceremony.

The author brings a career of academic and professional directing experience to inform readers how to select, prepare, and mount a production for the stage.

He demonstrates how one's worldview as a believer in Jesus Christ finds reflection in a world of visual and aural metaphors within a stage production.
