Kitsch and Theatre
Haplová, Barbora ; KAPLICKÝ, Martin (advisor) ; ETLÍK, Jaroslav (referee)
This bachelor thesis tries to capture the general characterics of kitsch. It attempts to find these characterics in a particular theatre production. In terms of general principles of kitsch I am trying to show how kitsch can become a subject of a theatre production. In the first theoretical part I worked mainly with Kitsch and Art, a book by Tomáš Kulka, and with various texts by Jan Mukařovský, Umberto Eco, Milan Kundera, Ludwig Giesz, Matei Calinescu, Václav Černý etc. The theoretical part analyses Petr Kolečko's play Buchty a bohyně directed by Jan Frič and Lukas Bärfuss' play Dvacet tisíc stránek directed by Zuzana Burianová, both final productions of graduating students under the Department of Dramatic Theatre DAMU.
The main aim of this bachelor thesis is to focus on the principles of kitsch in connection with the youngest generation of theatre artists. I am trying to apply general esthetical theory on particular theatre productions. In the analytical part I am working mainly with these productions, with a Czech play Buchty a bohyně and a Swiss play Twenty thousand pages translated by Magdalena Štulcová and adapted by Helena Kebrtová and Zuzana Burianová.
