Georges Bizet - The complex scenographical project
Březinová, Dorota ; GLOGR, Karel (advisor) ; DUŠEK, Jan (referee)
The topic of my bachelor thesis is an opera of George Bizet Carmen and the scenographic solution. I describe my way to understanding the piece, the time of it's creation and the knowledge of historical facts. I also mention the relevant matters such as the history of corrida, flamenco, tradition of gypsy culture.
I tried to figure out the reasons why the opera succeeded although the initial failure and how it happened to be one of the most played opera piece up to the present. I was looking for the limits of mediocrity.
In the selected productions I focus on the public perception of the piece during the ages and I characterise the changes in the visual transformations and the contribution to the modern scenography. I compare art production in the leading opera houses: Royal Opera House Covent Garden (1989), La Scalla (2006) and Staatsoper Unter den Linden (2006). I also studied the Czech adaptation of Kolář a Tröster under the direction of Kašlík. I have asked myself whether restore and modernize the piece on every step. Finally I've decided for the update version and I consider it right.

Author´s Work with Material in Theatre and Non-theatre Space
Benešová, Tereza ; TÄUBELOVÁ, Kristýna (advisor) ; SMOLÍK, Robert (referee)
Within my master's degree project Bathrooms I cooperated on the creation of several performances and theatre productions, in bathrooms of private flats as well as in theatre space. The main content of my thesis is therefore a reflection of these personal experiences, which are mostly founded on work with authentic material as a significant source of inspiration.
The first part of the thesis concentrates on ten short performances in authenthic space (bathrooms), which were created in years 2009-2011. Here, I look into the solutions of the individual performances from the position of an author and a performer. At the conclusion of this part, I mostly place emphasis on the communication with the audience within the functions in authentic space, and I compare my own approach to the methods of other artists. The second part of the thesis is focused on the projects which I implemented in theatre space, together with other colleagues. These projects were founded on my experiences from the bathroom performances. In this part, I analyse the evolution of creative process, and seek connection with the experiments in authentic space.
