A Holocaust Cabaret (eBook, ePUB)

Re-making Theatre from a Jewish Ghetto
Redaktion: Peschel, Lisa

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the summer of 2017, two teams of collaborators - one in Australia and one in South Africa - embarked upon a remarkable project.

Each team created their own performance from the archival traces of a satirical cabaret called Prinz Bettliegend (The Bedridden Prince), written and performed by prisoners in the World War II Jewish ghetto at Terezín. Their engagement with these traces resulted in two vivid performances that not only brought the past into our present, but put that past into dialogue with deeply felt local and contemporary concerns.

A Holocaust Cabaret presents both of the resulting scripts, alongside a series of essays about the process of the creation and production of the performances and an exploration of the original Terezín production.

Lisa Peschel is a senior lecturer in the Department of Theatre, Film, Television and Interactive Media (TFTI) at the University of York, UK.
