Staging a non-dramatic text
Svozil, Adam ; KORČÁK, Jakub (advisor) ; HRBEK, Daniel (referee)
This thesis deals with the topic of narrative (or ´diegetic´) theatre plays. It aims to map out the processes which emerge after the mimetic mode of representation is partly or wholly replaced with the diegetic one., i.e. the decline in their ´dramatic´ quality and the structural changes which are being conceptualized mainly within a narrative framework. The thesis consequently looks at specific historic moments which propelled strong contemporary presence of diegesis on theatre stage; namely the theatre of Bertolt Brecht, the performative turn and postdramatic theatre and the storytelling movement. With these circumstances in mind, the author reflects on his practical theatrical work: The Ritual Slaughter of Gorge Mastromas (DISK Theatre, Prague) and Illusions (DJKT Theatre, Pilsen.)
The Contemporary Staging of Selected Plays by Tennessee Williams
Svozil, Adam ; OTČENÁŠEK, Štěpán (advisor) ; ŠIKTANCOVÁ, Jaroslava (referee)
This bachelor thesis is based on analysis and comparison of two contemporary productions of plays written by Tennessee Williams. It describes two more general tendencies in the interpretation of dramatic texts that manifest themselves in these stagings. The selected productions are: A Streetcar Named Desire in Činoherní klub (Prague Drama Club) and Vieux Carré by the New York-based Wooster Group. The second part of this thesis is a reflection on the practical work - preparation of the bachelor production called Tennessee Blues. It describes the preparation of the dramatic text, scenographic conception and it also explains the nature of the chosen acting styles and gives overall insight into the production.
