Directing a so-called irregular text
Páleníková, Zuzana ; Šiktancová, Jaroslava (advisor) ; Korčák, Jakub (referee)
My work reflects upon a particular middle European concept of irregular dramaturgy which means performances that are not based on original theater plays. This expression could be also understood as dramaturgy of themes or subject-matters. It includes all types of adaptations of literature artworks even theatre without any written pattern, just based on improvisation. Through the analysis of my own experience (as an assistant dramaturgist in Dejvické theatre and as a director of two irregular texts ? Pannenky and Svět kolem ní) I try to figure out the specificity of work with irregular dramaturgy. I try to find some connection with today?s phenomenon of postmodern theatre. On the other hand some facts on today?s dramaturgy prove that postmodern aesthetics is somehow insufficient. There is a great demand of understanding from the spectators; they seem to be tired of postmodern ambiguity. That?s what leads us back to one of the basic categories of theatre which is the story. We can conclude that without an intelligible narration of the story, the subject-matter itself won?t be correctly perceived.
