Taylor & Francis The Method Acting Exercises Handbook
Book SynopsisThe Method Acting Exercises Handbook is a concise and practical guide to the acting exercises originally devised by Lee Strasberg, one of the Method''s foremost practitioners. The Method trains the imagination, concentration, senses and emotions to re-create' not imitate' logical, believable and truthful behavior on stage and in film.Building on nearly 30 years of teaching internationally and at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York and Los Angeles, Lola Cohen details a series of specific exercises in order to provide clear instruction and guidance to this preeminent form of actor training. By integrating Strasberg''s voice with her own tried and tested style of teaching, Cohen demonstrates what can be gained from the exercises, how they can inform and inspire your learning, and how they might be applied to your acting and directing practice.

Taylor & Francis Ltd A History of Chinese Theatre in the 20th Century
Book SynopsisThe 20th century was a dynamic period for the theatrical arts in China. Booming urban theatres, the interaction between commercial practice and theatre, dramas staged during the War of Resistance against Japan and a healthy dialogue between Western and Eastern theatres all contributed to the momentousness of this period. The four volumes of A History of Chinese Theatre in the 20th Century display the developmental trajectories of Chinese theatre over those 100 years.This volume deals with the development of Chinese theatre from 1949 to 2000, covering the fluctuations of ''drama reform'', spectacles of the ''Cultural Revolution'', and theatre in the immediate years before the opening up of the country. The author demonstrates how Chinese dramatic traditions endured and adapted in the face of modernity and how politics and art interacted.By combining academic rigour with a high degree of readability, this volume is both an essential guide for scholars andTable of ContentsUpdating concepts and adapting theatrical industry to market requirements Theatrical Concepts and Theatrical Literature China’s Theatrical Situation during the Anti-Japanese War Theatrical Conditions in the Occupied Areas and Shanghai The Anti-Japanese War and Theatrical Development Theatrical Development in Revolutionary Bases under Communist Party of China

Cambridge University Press Performing Endurance
Book SynopsisOffers a formal account and theory of endurance as a practice in performance art and protest. Discusses influential performances by Marina Abramović, Chris Burden, Tehching Hsieh, Yoko Ono, and others, as well as 1960s lunch counter sit-ins and twenty-first-century protest camps. Essential reading in performance theory, art history, and political activism.Trade Review'Lara Shalson's Performing Endurance is an original, bold, and impeccably lucid encounter with endurance art. Shalson's writing carries a deep and abiding sympathy for what it means to endure, to survive the situation in which one finds oneself: say, in art, in life, in conflict, or in love. This book will make an urgent and compelling contribution to theatre and performance studies now, and to broader political considerations of how and with what means one may endure, together and apart, in difficult or uncertain times.' Dominic Johnson, Queen Mary, University of London'In this excellent, elegantly written, and tautly argued book, Lara Shalson offers nothing less than a profound rethinking of key works and concepts in performance art practice and theory … the distinctive contribution this book makes to performance art discourse will endure.' Heike Roms, Contemporary Theatre Review'Shalson's theorisation of endurance, and its delineation as performance structure, is taut and precise, enabling generative readings of performance events as ambivalent, discomforting and yet deeply ethical in the way that they force artists and spectators alike to negotiate interpersonal relations and politically charged power structures … her argument is elegant and far-reaching.' Roberta Mock, Times Higher Education'Performing Endurance is a valuable resource for scholars toiling to spotlight the rich and varied mechanisms at work in performance art. Shalson's study will undoubtedly serve as a springboard for researchers looking to extend discussions on crucial aesthetic investments in endurance and as a model for scholars invested in parsing the urgent affinities between performance structures and protest tactics.' Raegan Truax, Modern Drama'Through Performing Endurance, well-known works of art are returned to and seen in a rigorously new and resolutely political light … Shalson's book will sit alongside works by Peggy Phelan and Rebecca Schneider with Amelia Jones not too far away … Her writing equals publications by these thinkers in significance and rigor …' Nik Wakefield, The Drama ReviewTable of ContentsList of figures; Acknowledgements; Introduction; 1.

Black Dog Press Introducing Suzy Lake
Book SynopsisSuzy Lake has been examining and critiquing ideals of the body, gender, and identity since the late 1960s. In her photographs, videos, and performances, she draws attention to social norms and constraints and aims to diminish the barrier between the viewer and the artwork. Introducing Suzy Lake follows the artist in images across five decades, as her political ideals are forged in Detroit’s civil rights movement in the late 1960s; as she realizes her first successes in Montreal’s artist-led cultural boom of the 1970s in the post-Expo 67, post-Duplessis era; and since 1978 in Toronto, as she finds her home and hones her artistic vision. Influenced by artists such as Cindy Sherman, Lake’s work demonstrates the innovation and continued influence of the “Feminist Avant-Garde” on contemporary art. Introducing Suzy Lake features almost 100 reproductions of Lake’s photographs, some drawn from celebrated installations, others from newly commissioned series. Complemented by essays by Allyson Mitchell, Robert Longo, Elizabeth Smith, Michelle Jacques, and Sara Angel, Introducing Suzy Lake reveals the richness and originality of Lake’s work and her stature as one of North America’s most influential contemporary artists.

Book SynopsisAfter first occupying vacant spaces in post-stock-market-crash Auckland in the mid-1990s, public art curators Letting Space re-emerged in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis. Confronted by the thin net of social welfare, the waste of the capitalist system and the climate emergency, it brokered spaces for artists to think and act radically, outside gallery walls.This book chronicles the projects those artists drove. From a grocery store where everything was free to an ATM for depositing moods and a citizens' water-testing lab, they added to the civic dialogue at a time when public space and media were increasingly commodified and under surveillance.Written by leading New Zealand writers and thinkers, including Pip Adam and Chris Kraus, Urgent Moments demonstrates the vital role artists can play in the pressing discussions of our times.

Edition Patrick Frey Vera Lehndorff & Holger Truelzsch: Body Paintings
Book SynopsisLehndorff & Trülzsch developed an oeuvre of remarkably innovative staged photographs of body paintings a synthesis of painting, photography, and performance during an intensively creative period from the 1970s to the late 1980s. In The Seen and the Unseen, Lehndorff & Trulzsch approach their artistic work from a new angle by interweaving the images of their work series, the facsimiled archive material (such as essays by Susan Sontag and Gary Indiana), contributions by critics Richard Milazzo and Jörg Scheller as well as contextual explanations and reference images. The book retraces the evolution of gender identities and the treatment of the female body against the backdrop of history and contemporary art in the second half of the twentieth century....that of one artist who is unseen...and another artist who is straining towards invisibility... Susan Sontag, Fragments of an Aesthetic of Melancholy, in Veruschka' Trans-figurations, 1986The method of Trulzsch/Lehndorff restricts their assertion from physically altering what already exists in the environment. This is an art of reflection rather than an intervention...it could...be said, that the...objects... are examples of double photography, or teleplastic photography (sculptural photography).

Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group The Partnership Brecht Weill Three Women and Germany on the Brink
Book SynopsisThis fascinating portrait of two of the most brilliant theater artists of the twentieth century—and the women who made their work possible—is set against the explosive years of the Weimar Republic.Among the most outsized personalities of the sizzling, decadent period between the Great War and the Nazis’ rise to power were the renegade poet Bertolt Brecht and the avant-garde composer Kurt Weill. These two young geniuses and the three women vital to their work—actresses Lotte Lenya and Helene Weigel and writer Elisabeth Hauptmann—joined talents to create the theatrical masterworks The Threepenny Opera and The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny, only to split in rancor as their culture cracked open and their differences became irreconcilable. The Partnership is the first book to tell the full story of one of the most important creative collaborations of the last century, and the first to give full credit to the women who co

Taylor & Francis Three Plays by Mae West
Book SynopsisMae West, wise-cracking vaudeville performer, was one of the most controversial figures of her era. Rarely, however, do people think of Mae West as a writer. In Three Plays By Mae West, Lillian Schlissel brings this underexplored part of West''s career to the fore by offering for the first time in book form, three of the plays West wrote in the 1920s--Sex (1926), The Drag (1927) and Pleasure Man (1928). With an insightful introduction by Schlissel, this book offers a unique look into to the life and early career of this legendary stage and screen actress.Trade Review"...in a useful introduction, Schissel does a fine, readable history of both West and the theater of her day. ...these plays...are fascinating windows into another time." -- Windy City Times"This volume gives a glimpse of the real Mae West by publishing her three radical, melodramatic, but quite hilarious plays for the first time." -- Booklist"No mere strutting sexpot, West's capacity for scathing satire comes into full view in Three Plays by Mae West, edited by Lillian Schlissel...Filled with the saucy argot of the New York streets, the plays still crackle and cook." -- Publisher's Weekly"These plays are important, original and fun. Anyone interested in theatre and gender is going to have a new and bold face to deal with." -- Michael Cadden, Director of the Program in Theatre and Dance, Princeton University Mae West was many things-sexual outlaw, wildcat feminist, actress, icon. The publication of these plays proves that she was more complex than her movies suggest. The only thing she did straightforwardly was to insist that her convictions were worth fighting for...She was as close as any woman has ever come to being one of the great American queens."...we can look back at Mae West with new eyes, and admire the fun she had with sex and the control she exercised on her image and her career." -- The Boston Book Review"I would recommend this book to anyone interested either in the history of gay theatre in America or in how gays were perceived in the early decades of the twentieth century." -- Marsh Cassady, Lambda Book ReportTable of ContentsIntroduction by Lillian Schlissel, Sex: A Comedy Drama 1926, The Drag: A Homosexual Comedy in Three Acts 1927, The Pleasure Man: A Comedy Drama 1928, The Case Against Mae West

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Theatre and the Threshold of Death
Book SynopsisOn the eve of a global pandemic, Kathleen Gough, a theatre professor, becomes immersed in the lives of five artist-mystics, each of whom is a pioneer in her field: Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179), the first known musical composer; Eleanora Duse (1858-1924), the first modern actor in the Western world; Simone Weil (1909-1943), philosopher, activist, and mystic, whom Albert Camus called the only great spirit of our time; Marina Abramovic (b. 1946), the grandmother of performance art; and Hilma af Klint (1862-1944), the first known (and belatedly acknowledged) abstract painter. Each time Gough crosses a threshold into their world, she is compelled to attend courses, seminars and workshops that are simultaneously about dying and healing. Curious to learn more about the relationships between art practice, dying, and healing, Gough imagines the five artists as wisdom teachers in a mystery school. In a series of eight lectures, she turns to performance theory to provide a framework for enga

Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Performing Folk Songs
Book SynopsisPerforming Folk Songs is the first full-length volume to explore English folk singing from the perspective of performance studies. Using archival sources, family repertoire and recorded performances of interviewees, this book argues that archives and repertoires are produced in sensory environments and through embodied encounters. Autoethnography, sensory ethnography, life-writing and landscape writing are used to explore the affective and emotional aspects of learning songs by heart'. Drawing on her experience as a folk singer, Bennett contributes to discourse on English folk traditions in the 21st century and brings performance scholarship to the contemporary folk song resurgence. In analyzing the performance of English folk songs in the affective context of the archive and the landscape, the book engages with and contributes original insights to scholarship on folk music, performance studies, affect theory, cultural geography and intangible cultural heritage studies.

"De L'autre femme" (1974) and continued in "Ce sexe qui n'en est pas un" (1977) and "Ethique de al difference sexuelle" (1984). The present volume not only contains the text of "Le Partage de la parole" itself but also reprints two earlier essays that bear upon the same topic. Irigaray is a feminist philospher whose work has always had a practical dimension. In this collection, her arguments are underpinned by empirical research on the language of schoolchildren and should have wide implications not only for a range of academic disciplines but for educational policy-makers and for feminism as a political force.
