P. Woycicki

Post-Cinematic Theatre and Performance

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A cinema without cameras, without actors, without screen frames and without narratives almost seems like an antithetical impossibility of what is usually expected from a cinematic spectacle. This book defines an emergent field of post-cinematic theatre and performance, challenging our assumptions and expectations about theatre and film.

Rezensionen

"It is an illuminating contribution to previous research into the intermedial relation between theatre and film and a thoughtful response to new aesthetics emerging from their interplay. ... It is certainly more geared towards and intellectually rewarding for advanced scholars and expert readers in the areas of theatre and performance studies, film studies and media theory." (Claudia Georgi, Journal of Contemporary Drama in English, Vol. 4 (2), November, 2016)
